Yes the dogs I currently use the most are #3-Jagds.  The first two are my favorite, but require more time and money to raise, and still might be culls.
The reason:
1-Florida cur- dog peddlars make it a crap shoot to find a real one from south Florida.  All my contacts down there are dead or retired.  
2-Bulldog X English pointer- because not just any AB or any EP will do for the cross to be good.  

Both 1 and 2 take longer to mature and there will be culls.

1. Florida cur- Heat tolerant, independant, easy to handle, trainable, find, bay, catch all in one package
2. Bulldog X English pointer- hard hunters that can go far and wide to find and catch
3. Jagds- they hunt hard, range way out, very low culls, start early, have good noses, cheap to feed
4. Pit or Bulldog X cur-  tough catchy, with a decent handle
5. Pit- but only a select few.  I like one that be calm until it's time, and can be trusted off leash.

Post by: BIG CHRIS on July 15, 2011, 08:09:51 pm
Well ur gonna get alot of diff .o2s on this thats for sure!

1. Plott/cur cross

2. Good hard hunting 2 to 400 yard YBMC

3. Straight  plott hound silent on track  hunt 4 to 600 out with lots of bottom.

4. Good lacy color dnt mean jack #2 to me! Personal .02 good medium range dog plenty of grit and smarts to handle what ever hog it faces.

5. Cant beat a good APBT. But i have seen a few APBT/DOGO that is maken me wanna try the cross.

All these dogs needs to be able to shut a hog down with plenty of good ole grit and brains. Not looken for long races. I like for my dogs  to stop hog asap if we jump one at 200 yards out i want it stopped by 225 and bayed solid. Not looken for a dog that will bite and back out thats un called for pressue if a dogs gonna get a bite he better hold on or be stoppen a running hog. I like 3 good dogs on the ground that will spin a hog like a top. I like for all my dogs to honor a strike, when  one dog strike i want them to be flien to it.

Dogo, cuz if you have a good one it's really all you need

Catahoula, it's what I was raised around and what I still hunt with most the time

Lacy, I got a good one, ones I been around can't be beat for speed, heat tolerance, stamina, and especially personality

Plot, I'm a sucker for brindles and I love the sound of a hound and the way they hunt. If I could color all dogs brindle I would, especially the Dogo. We have trackin collars now and don't need to be able to see them in the woods :)

Stag, flat out raw speed, easy to handle

Small game bred pit, can't be beat for a lead in cd, could even stick them in a backpack or across your lap in the saddle if you need to. One day I will own one for myself.

I'm growing real found of the bmc but that I'm actually hunting and getting going now are

#1 cur hound cross. If she'd just stay shut up I'd like her a lot better but I've caught pigs behind her so she's workin'.
#2 Kemmer cur...Lots of heart and go for being 6 he's a neat lil dog
#3 bmc...easy to start. he started at 6 or 7 months he honored a bay at 250 yds and had the pig by the tail when I got there and keeps getting better
#4 Cat/Kemmer cross...Long legged and lots of heart just not much hunt on him.
#5 Pit cur cross. 6 months old and hates a pig. super easy handle and I didn't mess with him much and he'll kennel up when told and can call him off gonna be a jam up lil dog.

I have 3 ybmc pups that should be turnin' it on in a month or so.

My lead strike dog that just passed away was bmc and plott but not sure how much plott and She was jam up.

Catch dogs are pits. I like them because they have such a bad rep and I like showing people other wise and I just got lucky that the bloodlines I have are easy starters. I have a pup out of my blue catch dog that hasn't been hunting yet but on mock hunts he hasn't missed an ear and will go to a bay.

Bdd I'm located in hico area not getting to hunt none right now bottle feeding fawns is about to wear me out lmao.  Seen about 10 12 hogs this morning in open field and mouth went to watering and oh how I wish I would have dogs have half permission to hunt it but the hogs are marathon runners but in that field they would have been smoked lol.

Okay here goes.....

#1-  Florida Cur- The REAL ones not some bulldog crossed up dog found in the projects.....
#2 - Florida Cur crossed with Florida Cur...... ;D
#3 - Florida Cur with about a 1/4 Birddog (english pointer seems to be the birddog of choice) in them.
#4 - Florida Cur with a touch of Ridgeback. I had a couple of these and they were good rough dogs. A little too rough!
#5 - Florida Cur x ????  Still waiting on that fifth one!

Course, after almost 30 years with TRUE Florida curs, I may be a tad partial to them......... ;D

what is a true fl curr?   ive read alot about them  b ut never been educated on the true fl curr


Title: Re: top 5 dog breeds
Post by: dan on July 16, 2011, 11:38:20 am
A true Florida cur is a working dog from south Florida, specifically Okeechobee.  

Dog peddlars market the name and sell any dog from Florida, that will bark at a hog in a pen.  It's a hard to find a real one unless your "connected" to the right people.

When we say what breed is tops it really is more like what strain is best within a breed or even narrow it down to a dog within a strain/breed. I forgot how hard it is to get a good dog... :o :(

1.I like the right mtn cur

2. mtn cur/bmc cross

3. bmc/hound cross (plott,running walker, redbone)

4. mtn cur/pit cross

5. ADBA APBT for catch dog
