Mountain Cur

The Mountain Cur is a robust and energetic dog breed that excels in active environments. Originally bred for hunting and guarding, they possess a strong work ethic and thrive on physical and mental stimulation. Known for their intelligence, loyalty, and protective nature, Mountain Curs are excellent companions for families who enjoy outdoor activities. However, they can be reserved with strangers and may not be suitable for homes with small pets due to their high prey drive. With proper training and socialization, they can be loving and responsible family members, but they require consistent exercise and engagement to prevent undesirable behaviors.
