Before I get started I want to say that when it comes to working animals color or papers don't matter much to me as long as they work. Hell, I raise striped eared cattle in a Angus part of the world. These pups were advertised at BMC's and they were black with a little white on chest and feet. Before I bought these pups I did some research on the owner. Found out he was a stand up guy with some good dogs. I have seen the parents they are both yellow with black masks. He said he gets some blacks every now and then and they don't go fast because everyone wants the yellow. Again, color doesn't matter to me if they work they stay if not they go. I am just curious if anyone else had any experience with this? I am new to the curs.

Im certainly not an expert with the BMC or any other breed of dogs, but something doesn't seem right with this. Is it possible or likely that one of the dogs in the second or third generation was not a common BMC (yellow with a black mask)?

It seems like they all originated off some good stock dogs. The YBMC is just a coined phrase to make some money, I could be wrong though.
Lots of the guys who breed the yellow dogs get reds, blacks, Black and Tans, and brindles.

If you go far enough back in any family of BMC's you will find all colors of cur dogs, even blue and spotted ones. That goes for the so called pure bred registered ones.

It's not as rare as a person would think... I have had this happen with my dogs but the other way around... My dogs are pure Parkers which are primarily black or brindle. there has been 2 breedings and both times I got 3 yella outta 9 pups. This is pretty rare, so to insure they were indeed pure parkers I had DNA testing done the first time it happened.

Black and tan colored BMCs are seen frequently. I haven't seen many straight Black BMCs but probably just haven't seen the lines in which they occur. As bigo indicated above, go back a few generations and you will see many colors. As Ben Jordan said many years ago "The color is the easiest thing to fix."

As soon as I can I will get some pics up. I leave the house before sunup and get home at dark, but I will get some. Like I mentioned color really doesn't matter to me. I do have a question though about BMC maturing. They are about about 6 mo old and still chasing butterflies. They are picking up their commands well but when they get off the lead they are back to goofiness. I have been using herding dogs on my cattle for a while and they seem to mature very quickly. They are both males if that makes a difference.

But registered dogs come with a money back guarantee that their noses won't turn pink and their tails won't fall off...........Hmmmmmm.....Maybe that was another kind of guarantee come to think of it. But I am sure its a goodun.....  |
