Great story Ralph77.
Cooter they look good. There are all kinds of looks to Florida Curs. Just like Plotts. It depended on the ranch/people that were breeding them. Your dogs look like they have alittle more ear to them then the ones I have. One thing about the breed regardless of how they look, they all seem to hunt the same way.
The guy who was breeding the line I have Jimmy, who went by Ghost Rider, was running Peeples Florida Curs and became friends with the guy Morgan who was breeding the Morgan line for McCoughlin Ranch. If you ever watched the Lady Hogdoggers show, the dog Poacher that Gary Stamper had was his Jimmy's last Poacher!! When one Poacher got killed the next litter with a big red cur became the next Poacher!! Some of Jimmy's Poacher dogs were close to 100lbs!! They started breeding their dogs together and were producing some very big rough curs back when nobody wanted rough curs. The stories of them getting invited to stay on some of the ranches for a month at a time and catching 300-500 hogs a month were just crazy. The pictures were awesome as well.
