I'm sure it's been asked a dozen times on on here but how was the best dog you ever seen breed? And was it a male or female?
I have never been much on females and I don't ever see be a few real good ones. They seem to mature faster to me but peak out quick. I will say the best I ever been in the woods with was fl cur male I had. Wasn't one that kicked dust in your face when you dropped him but he would always find that track the other dogs missed take his time and bay almost ever time he was dropped. Just curious to what the best yall seen was.

I have had a yardful at one time....but the best I ever had was a 1/2 mt cur 1/2 brindle cur that was said to be taylor bred...he was born with a level of brain power like I have never seen in a dog...born in my back yard and he did some amazing things at a young age and throughout his life...I wrote a story on him in the full cry magazine because I felt compelled to speak of him...I only bred him once to a gold nugget Kemmer mt cur and then bred his son many times to my females I had back then...

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...

Mine were about the same as well...bred that brindle cur once to give size and a little more silence on track....I was down to 1/32 and less of it...too many mt curs today are bred for squirrel. ..but there are still some good ones out there even squirrel bred... |

my buddys gyp, straight mtn cur. she will not stop hunting rain or shine, heat or cold. when all the other dogs are at your feet shes still hunting. extremely smart and great handle. Ive seen her wind hogs in their bed from a half mile( its mountainous here so the wind funnels) She roads, strikes off the quad, will jump out of a moving vehicle on the hwy if she smells a hog, consistently produces hogs when other dogs dont.  |

definitely one of my favorite breeds. shes gritty but mostly bay unless its under 150, she makes the big ones sit down. Not many mtn curs out this way but the ones ive seen even the good ones were semi open on track, this gyp is completely silent unless shes rigging. I can loose my temper on my terriers, but these mtn curs i cant even hardly yell at or they get depressed, it keeps me in check and forces me to be a better dog handler, when I get mad at a mtn cur I usually end up realizing its my fault. they make me a better man, terriers bring out the worst in me, ive been getting rid of them. this gyp is the dam to the pups inthe brindle post, every litter shes ever had no matter who the sire, she has thrown some exceptional pups, I think you could breed her to a chiweenie and get impressive offspring. I think evryone has an affinity to certain breeds that match their personality, for me its curs and bullylurchers
