I am getting a Mt. Cur pup from a friend. When I was telling the wife about it, I googled mountain cur so that she could see some pictures.
All the pics that came up looked totally different than what I thought a mt cur was.
The pup im getting is a light yellow  with a thicker coat than a BMC and a bob tail.

thanks

Bino, they come in different sizes and colors and just like any other breed some are good and some are not. The majority of the kemmers look just like the one you are getting. That line of dogs were basicly the same I used to raise but he went in a different direction with his breeding program. The grandsire on the top side was a bad to the bone dog Pedro had named Chango...The majority of the dogs are good find dogs behind the pups breeding...

Sabino this is Pedro's dog has mostly mtn cur in him
I like this dog...IMO that is how a mtn cur should look...


this one below is also nice..55-60 pound dogs with good leg, good length of ear and tight body with a slick coat.

shankem that is a well built dog and a real looker

Reuben - that saddle back dog is a fine looking creature as well

do ya'll ever have any issue with them treeing game? I though about using them before over the years for tree dogs and always wondered how much nose they had and how they will stick with a bad track before quitting it

Waylon,

that yellow one has some of my old breeding in it. My friend added some pit/bmc/mtn to the mtn cur because those dogs can be too long range. That yellow dog needs a vest to hunt because he is very catchy. these dogs have a just right nose for hunting and I have seen them wind a hog almost a mile away in the right conditions.

The saddleback I have never owned but looks like the dogs I kept. I tried to buy a few pups out of him but he is in Tennessee in the coon/squirrel competition circuit. He goes deep and winds and trails and trees.

not saying they are the best but my breed of choice. I like the colder nose for trailing and the natural inclination for winding and I like the stick and range they normally have. They are the middle of the road type dogs.

Reuben They sound like pretty squared away dogs, if these yeller dogs i got had a little more track trailing ability I'd be 100% satisfied, but like BigDog and I were talking the other night, once you have had hounds for so long it is hard to adjust to watching a cur dog not be able to take a tough track like a good hound or stay with a bad track long enough and in fact I'm supposed to be on the list for a Walker pup from him when the day comes, it will almost surely be a tree dog though that I can take my son out with and enjoy some quality time, but I don't want a blow way out dog like the hounds can be on hogs cause I just don't have the amount of land up here for that style of dog and who knows what I'll have down in Texas maybe even less. If I get regrouped I may have to try one of them dogs, I'm kinda a middle range hunter myself, I like most of the traits of the cur dog, but sure nuff miss a bunch that them hounds have as well. Thanks for your input it's always helpful.

kemmer is a strain of mtn cur that Robert Kemmer from Tennessee started and maintained. They were used for squirrel, coon, hog and bear.

He broke off from OMCBA and started his own registry and there for a while they registered any mtn cur as long as it was registered within a legitimate registry. I don't remember what year it was but they closed the kemmer registry to all other registries.

The kemmers are mtn cur just like stephens, Tennesse treeing brindles, and original mtn cur breeders assoc., united mtn cur, and probably a few others out there.
