Mountain Cur Club of America

Spearheaded by Karmic Kennels, the Mountain Cur Club of America is dedicated to elevating and protecting this remarkable working breed. Currently enrolled in the AKC Foundation Stock Service (FSS), our dedicated community is actively building the official breed standard, advancing health testing requirements, and laying the groundwork toward full AKC breed recognition targeted for late 2027.

Breed standards and strict health ethics

A healthy future for the Mountain Cur begins with responsible stewardship. Our club is establishing a rigorous code of ethics alongside detailed structural and functional breed standards. We actively promote vital health screenings and genetic testing across all registered breeding stock, ensuring that each generation retains its authentic working drive, robust constitution, and sound conformation.

Excelling in competition, hunt, and the show ring

The Mountain Cur is celebrated for its unmatched versatility. From intense treeing and competition hunts to canine sports, search and rescue (SAR), tracking, and the AKC conformation show ring, our registry showcases dogs that excel in every arena. As we organize national records and upcoming trials, we celebrate handlers and breeders who demonstrate the true capability of the breed.
