well i know walker, black and tan, and blood hound are supposed to be real loud mouth, redbone and plott are supposed to be quieter.
if you can find a Mt curXplott that would be a good breed to add in

thats a thousand dollar question if you ask me.... just depends on the particular hound you cross with the particular cur... if your cur is quiet and you find a good semi open hound then i would breed.... every hound has lines in them that are more open than others and every line has more dogs that are louder than others...JMO

I have really liked the 50/50 crosses! All the ones I have hunted behind were real tight mouthed with good noses. I have a full plott gyp that is silent so far and a plott/cur that is silent also. I have 8 pups out of them right now if you wanna try you a hound Jimmy. They will be 3/4 Plott 1/4 BMC!

I didn't realize that there was such a thing as too much hound.....just kiddin', I was a hound man for many many years and still love to hunt with them. I now have 2 cur dogs that I'm perfectly happy with....one is 1/2 Plott..1/2 cat and is totally silent on track. I had one Plott that was silent.....only hound I've ever had that didn't open on track. Been my experience that a cur of any sort crossed with Plott will have the most likelyhood of being silent on track of any hound cross that I've seen. Hey,....a little hound is a good thing in my book. Good luck with your crosses if you try it.

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog... A hunting dog is born not made...

Same here but.............why not find another silent cur with the traits you want to add to your line? For that matter, what traits are you looking to add to your line while maintaining a silent trailing dog?

1/2 and 1/2 you might get 1/2 and 1/2 or semi. and there aint no such thing as too much hound. Tho i did like noahs reply lol It just all depends on the dogs. really just a roll of the dice, and training. I like the 1/2 & 1/2 but i dont mind a little mouth, I would think for best results on silent would be 3/4 cur to 1/4 hound. JMO
