Breed overview
Mountain Cur
A.K.A.: Cur, American Mountain Cur, Stephen's Mountain Cur, Original Mountain Cur, Treeing Cur
Overview:
The Mountain Cur is a rugged, intelligent, and highly capable breed originating from the mountainous regions of the Southern United States, specifically bred for hunting and treeing game. Physically, they are medium-sized dogs, typically weighing between 30-60 pounds, with a muscular build, a short coat that comes in various colors (brindle, yellow, black, and brindle & black), and a naturally bobbed or docked tail is common. Their expressive eyes often convey their alertness and keen senses. Temperamentally, Mountain Curs are known for their unwavering loyalty, bravery, and energetic nature. They are generally good-natured with their families but can be reserved with strangers, making them excellent watchdogs. While they possess a strong prey drive and require consistent training and plenty of exercise, they can be wonderful companions for active families who understand their need for a job. Due to their high energy levels and vocal tendencies (they love to bark and bay), they are generally not well-suited for apartment living and thrive in homes with ample outdoor space. Regarding health, Mountain Curs are a relatively robust breed with a lifespan of 10-13 years, with no significant breed-specific health concerns, though like all breeds, they can be prone to common canine ailments such as hip and elbow dysplasia.
