Cajun Plotts podcast.

I just listened to it and have to apologize. The reception on my end was not that great.
Those cur dogs came out of Abita Springs, La. and they were Catahoula Curs. Those guys had cows and hogs in the woods and had about gotten rid of all their dogs. I was shoeing a horse for Sal Smith and noticed a few cur dogs hanging around and asked him about them. He said they were all that was left of his Dad's dogs that he used on cows and hogs. He had a young blue leopard about 8 months that he offered me and said he was going to keep the parents. The Dam of the pup was a blue leopard and the sire was a yellow brindle.Those dogs were leggy lean built dogs not at all like the heavier built Catahoulas seen today. Anyway I took him and he made a real dog that had unbelievable stamina and a real good nose. I had gotten a gyp from Robert Hobgood( She was a Mason bred dog) and bred them. One of those was one of the ones that stayed bayed so long. He was a Yellow brindle like his Grandsire. Named him Couger and the other one was a Blackmouth cur that was a 1/4 treeing Walker named Hank.
