The Brindle Mountain Cur is a relatively new dog breed, believed to have been first bred in the USA in the 1940s.
Other variations of Curs exist in Europe and the Mountain Cur seems to follow their lineage.
The Brindle coat is a beautiful blend of blacks and browns, usually appearing on the overcoat.
They can also have many other coat colors, including:
Black and brindle Black Tan Brown Yellow
Brindle Mountain Curs are closely related to the Tennessee Treeing Brindle. They're a bit louder than the Treeing Brindle and tend to make better guard dogs and workers.
The Mountain Cur will usually be about 30 to 60 pounds when fully grown and stand between 16 to 24 inches at the shoulder. This makes them decently mid-sized dogs, and definitely big enough to have fun with!
