Best dog I ever had was a leopard hound. He was silent , and rough. I'll see if I can get some pictures from the guy I sold him to. I wish I still had that dog and have been trying to buy him back for several years. He was blue merle colored. not as merle as a catahoula Though. Probably an 80 pound dog. Real tall and houndy looking.

there he is on top of the box. I sold him the one on top of the box and the one in the box. He likes the heck out of em and so did I. Both these dogs are silent, but most other leopard hounds ive seen are open.

Back in the old days a catahoula was called leopard cur or catahoula cur....nowadays folks talk about cur dogs and cats or catahoula's...they deffirntate between them and curs. ..

About 10 years or so ago the leopard cur name was changed to leopard hound...this breed is more of a hunting breed than a catahoula on average...

Well what are the dogs in the pics, because they are not leopard curs(leopard hounds). There was a man in California crossing leopard curs to hounds and calling them leopard hounds, but I think he stopped when dogging bear became illegal. I've seen some folks cross cats with hounds and make dogs like in the pics. Too bad these names have gotten so confusing

Granted I am old but I grew up with Leopard dogs (what is now Catahoulas ) They were just Leopards or Leopard dogs, (they didn't have much white, weren't all merle colored, and were rarely double glass eyed) never heard of Leopard Curs until the treeing  Leopards "or Leopard Curs came to light" more recently they became Leopard hounds.
 Laceys were  Lacey hog dogs.  Blackmouth Curs were Blackmouth Curs or just  Yaller dogs. Nowdays they are all Curs.
Still trailing Cur dogs do not " strike" they "Find" thus they were and are find dogs, (they find a hog or cattle and bark bayed at it) Hounds or open trailing dogs "strike" when they "find and open"  on "track", they all bay when they have something cornered "on the ground", thus they are bayed no matter what they are.
Old time terminology that is more "correct" than the modern terms. Amen

Im not sure the breeding on them. But they are called American leopard HOUNDS . They are different than catahoula dogs. These are tree dogs. Usually open mouthed and cold nosed.  Ive never seen one with glass eyes. Ive seen black ones, and black and tan ones. UKC registered. And all are real houndy. Not cur looking.

That's a great looking dog there Georgia. He just looks rough, I bet he was hell on a hog.

American Leopard curs are big game and treeing dogs just like the old man said. About 8 years ago the UKC started registering them as American Leopard Hounds some were excited about this because it got them into the UKC coondog events and some were really upset with the name change and now refuse to register with the UKC or acknowledge anything that has hound to do with it. Over those few years it seems that the guys registering with the UKC dog's look really houndy while the guys that decided to go their own way still look much more like curs and only register their dogs with the ALCBA.

I have two of the latter mentioned cur ones that are straight MacDuffy breeding. They come from a long line of bear and cat dogs. Almost no coondogs at all not that that is good or bad. I guess just like anything else it just comes down to preference. They have a little longer hair almost never glass eyes and almost never ever double glass eyed, and you can't even get them permanently registered until three people will sign off saying they have seen the dog go from truck to tree or bay on their own.

when I had him it took a hell of a hog to back him up. The guy that has him now said he's been cut down a few times but hasn't changed a bit. Its a shame he dont bay much because he's got one heck of a mouth on him.
