Meet the breeder

I'm Mandy M., the breeder behind Walnut Ridge Mountain Curs located in Georgetown, OH. I strive to keep the Mountain Cur breed true to its extremely versatile working abilities and healthy genetics. Please feel free to ask any questions. my website with dog info is www.walnutridgemountaincurs.com All of my breeding dogs have been DNA tested by Embark an are not affected by any of the genetic disease in their database. They have also been DNA profiled. All dogs and puppies are fed Royal Canin, dewormed every 2 weeks, and given monthly flea/heartworm prevention. I introduce the puppies to early neurological stimulation and work with them every day. My puppies are raised at my home and go through a "puppy preschool" where they learn their basics and socilization. Their socialization consists of a large variety of sights, smells, sounds, and objects that can be scary to a puppy. Different surfaces such as linoleum, carpet, concrete, wood, grass, dirt, etc., climbing structures, water, exercise pen, potty training basics, stacking and bench practice, raccoon and squirrel scent imprinting, and are given lots of love and attention every day. Puppies will be current on vaccines, Bordatella (at 3 weeks) Combo vaccinations (6 and 8 weeks). When you purchase a Walnut Ridge puppy, you are getting more than just a hunting dog, you are also getting a well started, loyal, best friend. My "puppy preschool" program prepared the pups for their new homes, owners, and jobs. A great dog begins with a great breeding and training program!

Q. & A. with Mandy

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have a goal to preserve the working abilities and versatility of the breed. I love watching my pups grow and mature into amazing dogs with their new families!

  • What makes your program special?

    I am dedicated to keeping ALL the original traits of the Mountain Cur, not just hunting. The main purpose of the breed is to be a versatile working dog, helping its owner with almost any task at hand. They played a large role in the settlement of America, a true All-American breed.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black, blue, brindle, brown, red, and yellow. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
