It has come to my attention for sometime now that alot of hunters don't really like to cross their registered catahoulas with cur dogs, i myself have owned some registered catahoulas and have bred them to some Cur females, they're usually jam up dogs, their noses are great, and they never give up, never, so i'm just wanting to get a few more opinions on this subject, crossing dogs to me really doesn't make any difference as long as you're gettin some bad asses outta the deal!!!!

Some people are stubborn purist. They don't like change (even if it's a good change). As for me, if it hunts, bring it! I've seen poodles that bird hunt. I've seen dogs from champion lines that won't. Bottom line is, I want a dog that does the job, regardles of bloodline.

I agree, i have seen some purebreds that don't hunt as well as a crossed dog, some of them are for showing then there's the ones that hunt.

Saw one of the prettiest cross dogs in my life the other day/ It was Black Lab & Blood Hound. Looked like a black blood hound. The guy that has it is going to train it to run deer. I'll let you know how he does (and get a picture).

I suppose for hunters a cross makes no difference other than having an idea or a name to the dogs used for a certain game. There are a lot of crosses and if they are a cost savings and adequate then a win/win for the hunter. A lot of crosses are becoming breeds especially with the catch dogs, could be a bargain for hunters if these cross breeds are adequate.
