The Black Mouth Curve is a general-purpose breed developed for livestock and hunting sports in the United States.
The Black Mouth Cure is known for its strong work drive, protective nature and natural herring and hunting abilities. There are several different lines of the black mouth curve, most of which are named for the kennel or family that developed them. This breed is most famous for its appearance in the Fred Jipson novel Old Yeller, although the dog used in the film adaptation was a Lab / Mastiff Cross. Black Mouth Curve Blackmouth Curve, Black-Mouth Curve, American Black Mouth Curve, Yellow Black Mouth Curve, Red Black Mouth Curve, Alabama Black Mout Curve, Alabama Red Black Mouth Curve, Florida Black Mout Curve, Florida Yellow Black Mouth Curve, Southern Black mouth curve, and southern curve.
In truth, no one knows where or how the black mouth curve developed. It is known for certain that these dogs were developed as general-purpose farm dogs in the southern United States and have been both widespread and well-known in the region since at least the 19th century. The Black Mouth Curve is one of the most populous and well-known breeds. Many believe that the term curve means mixed breed dog. This applies not only to how the term is used in modern Great Britain, but also when not applied in the United States, where the Black Mouth Cure, and many other Curs) are in fact pure bred. In the United States, Curve is a member of an elite general-purpose group that serves as farm dogs. In many ways the word is similar to terrier or hound, as it refers to a whole group of breeds and mixed breed dogs. Although Curs exhibit a large variety, they are typically medium to large in size, drop-eared, very athletic, energetic, intelligent, protective, basic in body design, and have strong hunting and herring instincts.
Curs are bred almost exclusively as Working Dogs, and until recently were unused. Additionally, they have traditionally been found in rural areas and were traditionally owned by working farmers and hunters. As a result, their breeding records have not been kept as carefully as those of other modern breeds, and their origins remain a complete mystery. Because of the great similarity of Curs to European breeds, it is almost universally agreed that they are descendants of European dogs who arrived in America with the earliest colonists and then crossed well with each other and possibly Native American dogs too.
It is quite possible that the American Coors breeds descended from the now extinct British Curb breeds. The first surviving written use of the word cur dates from 1200, and was a derivation of the word curdogge. The word Cur is believed to have come from the Germanic word “Karen”, meaning “to grow” or the Celtic word, “cu”, meaning “dog.” At one time, the British Isles had many varieties of curves, usually divided into types of guarding, hunting, and shepherding. Most reports of these dogs indicated that they were most common in areas of greater Celtic influence, such as Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and northern England. This association with the Celts has been observed by many researchers on the subject and may imply that the original curs were Celtic dogs. If so, it is much more likely that the word Cure is of Celtic origin. The cubs were noted for their ability to protect livestock, hunting game and from predators such as wolves.
There are many semi-distinct lines and varieties of black mouth curves, many of which have been heavily crossed. As a result, this breed shows substantial variation in appearance, although it is almost certainly the most standardized of any breed. In general, the black mout is medium to large in size. Although there is substantial variation, the average male black mouth is between 18 and 25 tall, and the average female is between 16 and 23 . Weight is largely determined by height and position, but males typically weigh between 40 and 95 pounds, and females typically weigh between 35 and 80 pounds. Ideal specimens are those that are either similar in length and height or are very long to long. No matter, the Black Mouth Kurt should be a very muscular, fit and athletic dog, although this breed ranges greatly from stocking to making litties. As a dedicated Working Dog, this breed should not have any exaggerated characteristics that will compromise its stamina or athleticness. The tail of the black mouth is quite variable. This breed is found in two natural tails, long, slightly curved and tapering, and a short natural bob. Additionally, many owners choose to artificially cut their dogs’ tails by a few.
The head of the black mouth curve is large, but proportionate to the body size of the dog. The skull is slightly flat, broad and tapering towards the flattened side. The face and the muzzle are quite distinct from each other, although they blend relatively easily. The muzzle is slightly smaller than the skull and is quite wide, giving the dog the largest area for odor receptors and the largest and most powerful possible jaws. The lips should be close fitting. They may be pink in thin-colored dogs, but darker lips, especially dark ones, are preferred. The eyes of the black mouth curve are large to medium in size, and may be green, brown, or yellow. The ears of the black mouth curve are wide at the base, medium to short in length and close to the head.
The black mouth curve has a short, dense coat that varies in texture from very thick to very fine. The breed comes in a variety of acceptable colors including: Red, Yellow, Fawn, Tan, Black, Brown, Baskin and Brindle. Neither of these colors can have a full or partial black mask above the muzzle, but most breed members do. Black colored pimples are also often found on the ears and feet. Small patches of white paint are acceptable under the chin, around the nose, and at the tip of the neck, chest, legs, and tail, providing a total area of white that accounts for less than 10% of the dog’s body and any The collar is not white. Black mouth curs can sometimes arise in other colors and patterns. Such dogs are considered ineligible in the show ring and probably should not be bred, but otherwise make good dogs that work as pets and as members of any other breed.
The gestation period in lasts for 60-64 days
The primary period of the reproductive cycle of the female is called Proestrus and goes on for around 9 days. During this time the females begin to draw in males. The subsequent part is the Estrus when the bitch is receptive to the male. It goes on for around 3 to 11 days. The third part is the Diestrus. Usually, it happens around day 14. In this period the bitch’s discharge changes for distinctive red and reaching its end. The vulva gets back to average, and she will no longer allow mating. The fourth part called the Anestrus. The time span between heat periods ordinarily keeps going around a half year. The litter size ranges between 6 to 8 puppies at a time.
Black Mouth Curs have very low grooming requirements. This dog never needs professional grooming, only very occasional brushing. Other than that, only those routine maintenance procedures which all breeds require such as nail clipping and ear cleaning are required. Black Mouth Curs do shed, but they are considered average shedders for most of the year. This breed will leave hair on clothes, furniture, and carpets, but will probably not cover them. Most breed members replace their coats once or twice a year when the seasons change, and become heavy shedders for a few weeks.
As with all breeds, initial socialization and puppy training classes are recommended. This breed has a reputation for being difficult to house. However, in every other case, it is very easy to train them. For example, They like to perform tricks and learn new ones quickly. They respond very well to training based on positive rewards rather than harsh or negative methods. This breed is required to live with his family and is likely to result in undesirable behaviour if he is regularly left alone for long periods of time.
This breed is classified as “somewhat active”, but is average. Long segments of quiet activity are often spread with brief bursts of high activity, often simply moving around the house or yard. In addition to walking, daily play sessions are required. Another dog can be a good exercise partner, but they will still need quality playtime with his owner. A fence-backed backyard is a good idea; Bichons are surprisingly fast, and if someone makes a dash for freedom, it can be difficult to catch or call you back. They enjoy obedience, agility and participating in rally competitions.
They should perform well on high-quality dog food, whether it is commercially manufactured or prepared with the supervision and approval of your vet. Any diet should be appropriate for the age of the dog (puppy, adult or senior). Some dogs are at risk of being overweight, so watch your dog’s calorie consumption and weight level. Treatment training can be an important aid, but giving too much can lead to obesity. Know which human foods are safe for dogs, and which are not. If you have any concerns about your dog’s weight or diet, check with your vet. Clean, freshwater must be available at all times.
It does not appear that any health survey has been conducted on the black mouth curve, which makes it impossible to make a definitive statement about their health. However, this breed is generally considered to be in excellent health. The black mouth curve is bred almost exclusively as a Working Dog, and any potential genetic defect that would impair its action potential would be quickly eliminated from the gene pool. This dog has also benefited from not being pure in the modern sense, as it has a very wide gene pool. This does not mean that Black Mouth Curt is immune to genetically inherited conditions, but it does mean that it suffers at lower rates than most of them and most purebred dogs. This breed is known to have a very long life span. Most owners and breeders expect their dogs to live between 12 and 16 years old, and many breed members can reach the age of 17 or 18.
As with all drop-year breeds, black mouth curses are susceptible to ear infections. Their ears easily trap dirt, grime, water, food and other particles. If not removed, these particles can form over time and cause irritation and infection. Black mouth curs, which work regularly or play in water, are particularly susceptible to ear infections, such as those that play in moist climates. If infections are not treated properly or quickly enough, they can become chronic and very painful. Fortunately, these problems can be almost completely prevented with regular ear cleaning.
Because this breed may have skeletal and visual problems, it is advisable for owners to have their pets tested by both the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) and the Canine Eye Registration Foundation (CERF). OFA and CERF perform genetic and other tests before identifying potential health defects. It is particularly valuable in detecting conditions that do not appear until the dog has reached an advanced age, it is especially important for anyone considering breeding their dog So that they can be tested to prevent the spread of potential genetic conditions. It is very reasonable to request that breeders show any OFA and CERF documents that they have a puppy or its parents, which will essentially be all respectable breeders.
Although the black mouth curve is considered a healthy breed, some conditions are identified as closely related to the breed. These conditions include:
