Mission Impossible in the Rain

It is not too late to get a puppy NOW for the upcoming 2019-2020 hunting season...

At only 4-6 months old, you may be amazed at what a foundation bred southern cur puppy can do for you.

When shopping for a tracking dog, more than the breed, you need to consider foundation-bred genetics.          
And what that means is generation after generation after generation, the dogs were bred to hunt!

If you are shopping for a breed to use as a blood tracking dog, a southern Cur dog like a Louisiana Catahoula, a Texas Blue Lacy,  or a  Mississippi Yellow Blackmouth Cur is hard to beat in tough conditions like rain and a wounded gut shot deer. 

Not only do they have a nose, grit and speed, but they will also have the drive to become a great running catch dog at 4-5 years old. 

And don't forget, that they are also the best pet for your little children back at home and I pity anybody that tries to get in between that dog and 'his' kids!


I love this Ladner Cur Dog bloodline.

Here below is the story of what is often thought to be a Mission Impossible.

With all of the rain we've had, I want to share this story so hunters won't give up on a track and a possible recovery due to rain.

A hunter in south GA called me to track 2 bucks for him.

 He said he debated calling because it had been 24 hours and non-stop rain the entire time. He said both deer ran downhill into a creek bottom from the top of the ridge. All signs of blood had been washed away in the short time that he waited to go look for them.

 I told him that I could be there in a couple of hours. We put Xena on the trail and had this buck 15 min later.

 It would not have been possible to find any other way. 

We jumped and bayed the second buck for another recovery as well. I wasn't able to get a picture of that one because the bottom fell out. With temps in the low 30's and pouring rain, I was in a rush to get in.

And if I wasn't into spotted dogs, I would definitely have a Ladner Cur!
