Tips on Grooming Your Black Mouth Cur

    Low Maintenance: The short hair of the Black Mouth Cur is easy to groom. Occasionally comb and brush to remove dead and loose hairs. Bathe only when necessary as bathing can dry out the skin, causing skin problems. Keep the ear canal free of excess hair and the toenails clipped.

    Why Brush or Groom Your Black Mouth Cur Dog?

    Brushing and combing your dog's hair coat is an essential component of general pet care. Combing helps to keep your Black Mouth Cur dog's coat in good condition by removing loose hair and avoiding hair mats/knots.

    Brushing also serves to help to distribute healthy natural skin oils over the hair shaft, promoting a shiny coat and helping dust to slide off the hair. This can also help to lessen the need to bath and therefore lessen the regularity of bathing.

    Brushing and grooming of your Black Mouth Cur dog are tasks that help to strengthen the good relationship bond between your dog and you. Brushing should be an enjoyable and comfy experience for your pet and you.

    How Often to Groom Your Black Mouth Cur

    How frequent to brush and groom your dog will rely on each individual dog. Dogs tend to differ in their need for brushing because of their coat type and length and also depending on their more recent activities.

    Dogs with short coats generally require much less brushing and grooming contrasted to dogs with medium to long haired coats as these longer coats can get tangles, mats and debris trapped in them more quickly.

    Some very short-haired dogs may not need conventional 'brushing' and for these dogs, owners may rather like to try a soft grooming glove to carefully remove loose hair, occasionally.

    Dogs should be brushed 'as required'. Owners should keep an eye on the condition of their dog's coat, searching for any tangles/mats or dullness which indicates they might need a brush. Grooming can take anything from a couple of minutes to a number of hours a week depending on your type of dog.

The tail is straight, set low, and may be any length. The coat is short and close fitting. The Blackmouth Cur should be evaluated as a working dog, and exaggerations or faults should be penalized in proportion to how much they interfere with the dog's ability to work. Scars should neither be penalized nor regarded as proof of a dog's working abilities.

The Black Mouth Cur is a fast, hard hunter that finds game using its eyes, ears and nose. Silent trailers are preferred, although slightly semi-open on a very hot track is allowed. Never open like a hound. A loud, deep chop on bay or tree, ringing cry or slight yodel allowed. Never full-blown bawl mouthed.
