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.

Then vs now

My sweet boy Pedro was found at 5-6 weeks old in the middle of a service road by a highway early one morning in March 2025. I got a call from a friend at 4pm that this pup had been at a tire shop all day and in a hour when they closed, the men were leaving him outside with a bowl of water. The sky was already getting dark and thundering so, I said bring him to me and I’ll find him a home. Having lost our dog 4 mos prior we were not even entertaining the idea of another one yet. I said 3-4 days max!!!
Here we are in Oct 2026, and my lil pup is now a gentle giant at almost 100 lbs. He sleeps in my bed, follows me everywhere ( I joke that he’s made of Velcro) and we can’t imagine life without him. The vet told us immediately that he was Black Mouth Cur mix, but until we do DNA we’re not sure what the mix is. He is however, a hundred percent big whiny baby!

I figured I had lurked long enough 😊
