United Mountain Cur Association | Squirrel dogs and Coon dogs!

The purpose of the UMCA is: To unify the Mountain Cur Breed and promote it according to it's hunting heritage. This includes using them as squirrel dogs, coon dogs, hog dogs, and all around farm dogs. A secondary objective is: To make every effort to draw closer together those various individuals who have an interest in the Mountain Cur Breed, for a friendly and harmonious atmosphere.

In 1957 the Mountain Cur Club was started in an effort to preserve the Original Mountain Cur breed. From this stock many different lines were bred and registries started. The UMCA was formed in an effort to bring these dogs and their owners back together! This improves the gene pool by allowing crosses of the various bloodlines (Original Mountain Cur, Stephens Cur, Kemmer Cur, Mtn View Cur, etc...) to be registered. It also provides a friendly atmosphere for Mountain Cur hunters to participate in buddy hunts, competition squirrel hunts, nite hunts, bench shows and treeing contests, or to just hang out and talk hunting dogs!
