Black Mouth Pom Cur

The Black Mouth Cur was bred for hunting, and most experts say he is top of the class. He may hunt medium-sized game, or he may be used to hunt large prey such as bear. They also work with cattle. He is a natural hunter; breeders claim that he is often self-taught when it comes to hunting skills. The cur may be a tough dog on the hunt; however, with his family, he is kind, loyal, and protective. He is also good with children. His handler must be calm, confident, and authoritative. It is recommended that training begin as soon as the puppy is brought home. He is not to be trusted with smaller animals. It is not his intention to hurt other animals; it is his hunter’s instinct that causes him to be aggressive toward smaller non-canine animals. The Pomeranian is considered an extroverted dog who loves other people and animals. However, he believes he is much bigger than he actually is, and he may challenge other dogs at times. He is alert and curious. He may be prone to barking; it is recommended that training to stop barking on command begin at an early age. Most Pomeranians that are properly socialized do not exhibit the aggressiveness mentioned previously. This also helps with small children, as some Poms are not good with children unless socialized properly. Considering these traits, the Black Mouth Pom Cur should have a vibrant personality; however, he will need early socialization to become accustomed to small children, people other than their family, and other dogs. Because both parent breeds can be dominant, it is important to begin training at an early age. The Black Mouth Pom Cur is a perfect mixture of both parent breeds; one can expect him to be curious, intelligent, and alert.
