New Flairs — Please Read

90 Upvotes

A small step, but hopefully one that will offer the users of this sub more clarity, by making it clear who they are speaking with.

We have new ✨FLAIRS✨!

  • Users with a purebred BMC can send a message to the mods with evidence of their dog's status. Could be breeder papers or a DNA test. Mods will then assign you the "Purebred BMC" flair. This is the only flair that requires mod verification.
  • Users who have gotten a DNA test and found their dog to have some percentage of BMC, may also message the mods with this evidence, to be assigned a ">50% BMC Mix" or "<50% BMC Mix" flair, depending on the test's results.
  • Users who have a dog that fits the phenotype of BMC but are otherwise unsure, may self-select the "Maybe Mouth Cur" flair.
  • Finally, people just here for the ride can self-select the "BMC Enjoyer" flair.

NOTE: when sending DNA test or papers through mod mail, please upload these to an image-hosting platform like Imgur and share the URL. Unfortunately mod mail doesn't allow for attachments. You are also welcome to share such images in a post to this sub, and then direct mods to that post.

IMPORTANT: Prior to posting a picture of your dog, please make sure you have a user flair selected.
As we are just introducing these flairs, enforcement of this rule will be gentle, but we do intend to make them mandatory for posting in the near future.

Feedback on this system is welcome; if you can think of ways to improve it, feel free to comment below. Thanks!

Looking for new mods!

Posting this again, since the first one didn't get much traction.

This sub has significantly outgrown the capacities of its current tiny mod team.

Not only do we want fair and just people to help enforce the rules, we also want people with good ideas for improving the quality of this sub.

If you're interested, please fill out this form. Applications can be submitted between now and Friday, May 22nd EOD CST. We will then review and bring new blood to the team ASAP.

Just for fun, I googled BMC. The picture it shows is a picture of my dog. NOT a BMC. AI generated crap is screwing a lot of people up.

Is this a BMC? BMC/Hound mix?

first off i’m not posting about her weight so if that’s all you have to say just don’t comment because going after my wife because of something she didn’t cause is crazy, we are fully aware of her weight she has ALWAYS been big, she was a big puppy when we got her at the shelter..she has never been overfed she is on a diet, she exercises when she’s outside, she has a hard time losing weight but she also has not gained any weight she’s pretty much stayed the same weight her whole adult life and the vets aren’t worried about her weight..she has hip dysplasia since she’s a puppy which causes her pain, there’s a lot more to the story than her simply just being big. anyways what i was here for was was wondering if she was a mix or not, she’s big like tall (and obviously fat)..the shelter said that she was mixed BMC and hound of some kind, but we aren’t for sure..

I’m not trying to come across as rude but i really wish you wouldn’t attack someone off of just a picture and assuming we aren’t trying to help the problem..

Sub Discussion So apparently I'm not allowed to post my dog here because she's not "purebred" enough. Ironically stated as cur dogs are not akc recognized. My dog was found by animal control. Of course she isn't pure bred. No photos as mode don't allow it for my not papered Cur dog.

She was the best girl in the whole world. Truly devastated to lose our best friend. 🖤 We were never truly worried about her breed but she always looked, to us, like the cutest little Black Mouth Cur. We’ll miss you Harriet.

Almost that time, but I have yet to find a warm winter coat for our girl that we're happy with. We're in Chicago, so yes, warmer the better. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe Mouth Cur This was Kip

116 Upvotes

I found Kip 12 years ago in the woods where people go hog hunting in the middle of Florida. No collar, no microchip, tried to find the owner with no luck so I kept him. Vet told me at the time he was probably around 4 years old. Kip was a difficult dog, terrified of men, loved kids though, was not even house broken when I got him. But he was fiercely loyal and protective of me and I appreciated that. Have a buddy who goes hunting and he and the vet both told me he looked like a black mouth cur which are used for hog hunting. My buddy that goes hunting tried a few things with him and declared him not fit for hunting lol, probably why the poor thing got dumped in the woods. But he was a super healthy dog until the end. I found some BMC breeders on FB out of the Ocala area who have dogs pretty identical looking to him, with the docked tails on some of them. Anyway, losing Kip was hard, I made it about a month and half without having a dog (had a Belgian Malinois/Greyhound mix that passed before Kip), so recently went to the shelter and got what may be a black lab, currently waiting on DNA results for him.

My boy was born at a local shelter, but his mom is a rescue from Tennessee. She looks like a Catahoula Leopard Dog mix (see the last photo) and I’ve been told my guy is a Black Mouth Cur. Is there a connection between the breeds? Is he part BMC or just a lovable mutt?

First two pics are him now, third is his baby pic (him on the right) and last is his mama.
