I have been doing alot of reading and looking around on this breed and really like what it sounds/looks like. I am just looking forward here a year or 2 but is there anybody breeding them for bear/cats in the NW? I am in the south eastern portion of BC. I am just trying to have all the research and info swapping and talking done by the time I decide to add to my pack. If anybody has any info at all it would be great!

Are you look to get a Leopard hound or The original Leopard cur before the hound blood was added ? If you like the cur I would talk to Randy Ollier he owns the registry for the ALCBA and can tell you everyone that owns them all over the US & Canada his # 530-335-2477

Well that is a good question. What would be the difference if any? Would one work better than the other for bear/cats? Other than that I am not sure if it would matter much as I am only concerned with catching game.

EDIT: I didn't notice you edited your post, thanks for the info.

Nick Riley has some great dogs, he's in MT and he runs Leopard Hounds. Mike Toth aka Lepcur in CA has a litter of Leopard Curs once in a while. Randy Oller aka GreyFox in Northern CA has a waiting list and has a litter of Leopard Curs now and then. I'll probably have a litter next year if these two young dogs turn out as nice as I think they will. They are Leopard Curs. They are both out of Randy Oller's dogs. They come from the McDuffie line of Leopard Curs.

Fred, thanks for the complement.
All my dogs are or will be(in the near future) ALCBA(cur) and UKC(hound) registered. I call my dogs MUTTS because that's what I think they are.
Wardogg, I use my dogs on bobcat and lion in NW Montana. They aren't perfect but do better for me than anything I have tried so far and I like them a lot no mater what you call them. Nick

Are most of the dogs out west from the McDuffie line?

Thanks to all the people for the great info! This site is a great resource and a great place for us houndsmen.

No there is as many dogs that go back to the Clark dogs,the stuff down from jug works well

I have a leopard cur, i aquired 5 years ago. I wish I had the papers on him to figure out where he came from. I got him from a guy in riggins. Best bear dog I own, or have owned. Have been thinking of breeding him to my duncan female.

Most of the big game dogs are McDuffie bred....... No ? about it.
I wouldn't call S. D. out west.

I know where a real nice 11 month old Leopard Cur pup is for sale in NW MT. He's been on 6 lions this winter. Give me a PM is your interested. He's from Mr. Oller's kennel.
