hunting florida curs

Good looking pups cracker c.  If that red and white one all the way on the right is a female, I'd take her off your hands.  call me 3523288354

I'd love to see some peeples or morgan florida curs if anybody's got any.  I'll post some pics of mine soon.

Ninja I appreciate the interest but there are about 20 guys ahead of you...LOL  And that is a female on the right, the only male is on the far left. These pups were all spoken for about 2 years ago, we have just been trying to get them on the ground.
I hunt the mother to these pups and we had a little trouble getting her bred. She had 5 pups but one was breach and stillborn, so only 4 live pups.
Here is a pic of the mother to those pups pictured above, caught on a 120 lb sow, by herself, in a cypress swamp. She found  this hog, barked 2-3 times, then it was a caught hog....
These pups will be rough I am sure! If you look at the pic of the sire, you will see numerous scars on him too.

Yes, post some pics of your dogs when you get a chance. I used to get a few pied (black & white) dogs out of these, but haven't for about 10 years now. I liked them, not sure why I don't get them anymore. I still get ringnecks though. My dogs have blood from Mann Bailey, Craig Bexley, Eddie Glisson and others. Plus I have Monkey, my Partin male that is unrelated to my other dogs.

Hey Ninja, here are a couple of pics of another young dog of mine. This female goes back to Judge Platts dogs on the top and Overstreet Ranches dogs on the bottom. I got her from a ranch south of me to cross with my dogs if she turns out. She is out of two cow dogs but I started her on hogs. These pics show her on a small boar in a buddies 5 acre pen. This was the second time she had ever seen a hog, was 7 months old and caught right off the bat. She never even barked........I think she may be just a little rough when she gets older.....LOL
The other dog in the pic is my young dog Spur. He has the LEAST bite of any of my dogs and I had turned him loose to "bay" with her. Well, she had other ideas....

I need some help on posting pics on here.  When I go to additional options it keeps saying the file is too big.  I shrink the picture down and get the same message.  what do I need to do.

Crackerc...those are some good pics.....on that ol' pineywood rooter......lol......man y'all aren't helping my wanting to get another Fla. Cur.......  The last time I had one was in '95....... he was a yellow ring neck.....was an awesome head dog on cows and a good hog dog.  He got loose on the ranch I was working on in Summerville, GA (4L Rodeo Co.) because there was a gyp in heat and got ran over trying to get to her. I was gone to a rodeo and one of the other hands told me about it when he got to the rodeo....I was not a happy person........

Pecos21, I have gotten ringnecks from these dogs out of every litter I have ever had. Not every pup, but several ringnecks in each litter. My dogs are cow bred but I used them on both. I managed a ranch here in Fla for years, running 500 cow/calf pairs. We used the same line of dogs for cattle as we hog hunted. In fact, they were often littermates.
Here is a pic of my Spur male, a yellow ringneck. He is coming 2 years old, is sired by my Monkey dog (which is Partin bred) and out of my old cow dog female Chelsea(who is now deceased). Spur doesn't have the bite my other dogs have, but he will probably live a long time because of that......he is more of a bay dog and less of a rough catchy dog like I am used to. He is out of Monkey's first litter.
Hate to hear about you losing your dog, if you saw my pens you would know why they are the way they are. When I put one in my pens, they will be there when I get home......no chain link pens here. Heavy duty welded panels, on concrete floors with tops on the pens. I lost one dog years ago (the best cow dog I ever owned) by her getting out of a pen and I swore that wouldn't happen again.

its good to hear some fimilar names on here .. LOL

 I am in central Fl.  also and have hunted with a lot of good cur dogs .. my dogs actually have some ol platt bmc , bossie and kempher blood lines in them ... all of the "ole" homesteaders have good dogs if they were not good they would not feed them..
 
I think if you can find any ole cowboy to give or sell you a dog or pup it should make a good one ... they worked on those lines for many many years ... the blood is there .

My scaner is down but soon as i get a new one i will scan some old pics of some great dogs i have had that are now bred into my dogs i currently have!!

the ones i have now are a lil more gritty then i would like but hunt excellent !! so its a catch 22.. mine are not gonna bark at a thing even if they are cut down and bled out ..  but  they catch hogs for me !!! sometimes we get into some bad spots !! we have all survived and keep makin it happen.. !!

all i can say is these dogs have the heart and drive it takes and are very dedicated to what they do for us !!! 

crackerc .. You have some fine lookin dogs there..  and proof of what these fl. cur dogs do is in the pics !!! 

[Pecos21]

Crackerc you have some fine looking dogs, and I can see why there is a waiting list.....my male looked REAL similiar to that male.....   Nice Hog too......!!!!

[ninja]

[ninja]

[ninja]

these are not mine, but are true working 100% partin curs, take a good look

[Pecos21]

Good looking dog ninja......where are you out of? I was born and raised in Polk County... (Davenport).....grew up hunting at River Ranch and Avon Park Bombing range.......and of course........the swaps that skirt the orange groves in Polk, Lake, Osceola, and Higland Counties....LOL

[ninja]

I let the kids spoil em when they're young.  Now, this male is my buddies best cow dog and this female is a long range strike dog.  Both are real hard and gritty.  This is sellers line and is one of the best florida cur lines I've ever seen.  Realdogs has a male I sold him called TJ thats tearing em up in texas.  Most of the dogs that come out of this line are medium to long range strike dogs that shut hogs down and were only used to find and work cows until I got ahold of em. I hunt mallory swamp, some places I can't talk about, my new 32,000 acre lease and any place a yankee hasn't built a new house.

Alright dang it!!!

If this thread is a marketing scheme for Florida Curs then its working!!!

Sure makes me want one!!!

[ninja]

Mallory swamp!   One of the best and hardest places to hunt hogs.  So thick we've been stuck for hours before finally getting out.  Lots of places the only way to get through is to crawl through the hog tunnels.  We've killed lots of big boars out of here.  Some of the bays or catches we just let em finish and come on out.  Everybody and everything gets bloody at mallory.

[Pecos21]

Ninja that pic takes me back.......dog boxes and whip antennas!!!!!!!!!!    I love it!!!!!! I hear ya on the Yankee thing.....we used to hunt in Kissimmee right up to Mickey's backyard......The Mouse had some hogs hanging around...LOL.....but all the development and the Snow birds moved in.....that moved us out........I was down there last year for my Grandpa's funeral and I couldn't believe the growth around Kissimmee and in Davenport where I am from...........
