 Every cur dog that is Texas bred for many generations has Fox hound in them. I was told it was to put more stamina in there stock dogs. I have seen heavy haired dogs in spotted and yellow lines. Every now and then, I get some heavy haired dogs out of mine.
   Where I grew up, a spotted dog was a Leopard dog, a blue dog from central Texas was a Lacy Leopard and other colors were cur dogs. Tom Stodghill was the first person I ever heard call the spotted dogs Catahoula and it was Catahoula Leopard. I believe they are all color fazes of the same dogs,stock dogs. There foremost purpose was to gather stock off the open range.
