i've been looking at squirrel dogs and i really like the look of the mountain Cur. However, i also want to take the dog hunting coons at night occasionally along with my sister-in-law and her blueticks. Do you think I would have problems with the Cur starting fights? I have heard they arevery territorial. I plan on buying the dog as a pup and training it myself.

Any suggestions on how to make a dog more friendly both toward strange people and dogswould be much appreciated. Or if what i want to attempt is going to be extremely difficult due to the Cur's breed, let me know.

Thanks in advance,
Eric

if you keep him around other dogs most of the time, then when hes around the coon hounds, he should be allright. he just has to beusedto being around other dogs. same for people. Just train him to be soft tempered.

since youd be starting it from a pup, id venture to say youd be fine because you'll beable to make the blue dogs and your cur friends from the beginning and thats just how id go about it...let them play as they are pups...walk them together...that sorta thing till you are ready to train your cur. train your cur, get it treeing coon on its own and then start hunting them together. if the blueticks are good "pup trainers" and are good solid straight coon hounds, then you might get away with them hunting together when they the cur is young...but ive always trained and raised them to hunt alone before letting them hunt with other dogs. "pup trainers" can be good and bad...ive heard of some guys ONLY using "pup training" dogs to train their pups...says they teach them to hunt...ive never seen it but read and heard of guys doing it...

i dont know anything about curs either so i dont know how territorial or what their issues are...and dont know what kinda coon hounds they make...ive always thought curs were more of a sight tree dog than a scent hound like a bluetick..i dont know...could be way off..and any dog has a nose and can track and know guys do coonhunt with cur dogs..i just dont know anything about them so i cant help there...

i do know if it was me id make the dogs friends from the beginning..raise the pup around the blue dogs and keep them "friends" the whole time and train your cur to coonhunt by itself...once its hunting good and older(maybe 2 or so..), then id consider hunting it with the blue dogs.

ive never, and never will pleasure hunt with dogs that i dont consider the be atleast comparably as good as the dog im hunting. best friend of mine or whoever, i just wont do it...ive seen good hounds ruined because they were hunted with dogs that treed trash(possums etc) or ran deer or yotes etc...i rather hunt alone than have my good hound pick up bad habits from hunting with bad dogs...and wont pleasure hunt them with dogs that are mean and fighters...i dont care if we hunt 4 dogs and all 4 dogs tree different trees...just wont hunt with mean dogs that will start fights...

thats just me...when dad and i had our last walker hound he was the mean dog..we knew that and chose to hunt alone and not hunt him with anyone else...but once dad seen his buddies junk dogs "teach" ours to run deer or tree possums, both of which the dog was broke well off of, he stopped hunting with them...

ive seen GOOD solid grand nite champion hounds tree a possum just because a junk dog treed on the possum and the grand nite didnt find a coon track before the junk dog treed the possum so he went and treed with it..

but, everyone is different. you gotta know what you want from your dog and what you expect...i dont own a hound now, but run with my buddy a couple nites a week..he has a grand nite walker hound..if he cant hunt, i will take the dog myself..hes a pleasure hunter that hunts all year just to hunt, but does hunt a couple competitions a year..he has different expectations and trains a little different than dad did as a pleasure hunter...

good luck!!

ok, thanks for the reassurance guys.
God Bless

will it do this or this or this

im just joking i have one, it should be fine.

alrighty, sounds good. I talked to my sister-in-law and she, too thought it'd be okay.

You need to seriously consider a West Siberian Laika. They hunt squirrels by day and coons by night and don't miss a beat. They hunt naturally and don't require ANY training. Just start taking them to the woods and by 4 months, they tree.

I have several times brought this up with various bits of G, most recently in response to an unsolicted mail from G in Ireland offering to help "optimise" my use of AdSense. The people in G variously respond with boilerplate or that this targetting miscue is my imagination or that it cannot be fixed, and my last email conversation stopped dead!

ASA: please get your CSR and "optimisation" and targetting people:

1) To get their story straight (and stop denying what is a very definite and comletely understandable mis-feature in an otherwise clever/good heuristic).

2) To allow occasional manual fixes (essentially a regex to zap URL components for some sites, and a small list of -ve keywords too) to overcome small wrinkles in the algo. Note that these should be fairly abuse-free as they will be BLOCKING ads rather than attracting undeserved ones...

Very little about G irritates me, but calling the customer a moron or stopping the conversation dead, is one of those things that does.
