Arline is one of three Mountain Curs we got through a rescue mission headed by Bissell Pet Foundation. They are from Louisiana. Mountain Curs are intelligent, easily trained, and neither vicious nor shy. They are known to try to please their humans and are able to get along well with children and other pets. Since these curs were bred to work, if deprived of the opportunity to hunt, guard, or work around a farm, they will sometimes grow anxious and bored. However, when they have a job to do, they are generally happy and obedient. Mountain Curs can live up to 14-16 years, and there are no reported breed-specific health issues. She is very smart and loving. She is still a puppy and will need direction in housetraining. Puppy classes are required for adoption. She will probably be between 30 and 40 pounds when full grown. These are precious little pups that will bring joy to any family.
