HISTORY AND ORINGIN The Black Mouth Cur is a breed of dog that was developed in the Southern United States. Often considered a mongrel or mixed breed dog, they are actually purebreds who were used to hunt game and herd cattle. There are now many different varieties of the Black Mouth Cur, but most have muscular bodies and medium builds that make them good working dogs. The breed was developed from dogs brought to the southern part of the United States by Spanish conquistadors. It is believed that the Black Mouth Cur has been in existence for centuries. The earliest records of the breed date back to the 1800s. The true origin of the breed has been lost in history, but it is widely accepted that black mouth cur mix are descendants of European dogs that were brought to America with the original settlers, and many people believe that the English Mastiff was one of the breed's ancestors. These dogs would have bred with local American canines, leading ultimately to breeds such as the Black Mouth Cur.
