Wyoming Mountain Curs
We started Caleb's Kennel in 2002.
Old Jake was our start.
We named our kennel Caleb's because Caleb in (Joshua 14:8) followed God wholly. It didn't take us long for Old Jake to show us he would do the same for us. We started on this venture 24 years ago. After hunting with Hounds for 15 years we learned Curs were a better fit for our family. Curs handle easier making it easy to take them backpacking, camping, fishing, trapping, wilderness guard dog duty, etc.
A list of some of our Curs achievements: hunting Hogs, Coons, Lions, Bobcats, Bears, Dogging Coyotes, Blood Tracking, some have worked birds, Search and Rescue work, and trapline work. Then in their off-duty time play with your kids.
Characteristics of the OMCBA Mountain Cur: Strong treeing instinct on all game, courageous fighters, intelligent, easily trained. Retaining a high degree of ancestral instincts such as running a track with the head in the air. A hunting and tracking style much different than a hounds, but faster. They are more of an independent thinker that will hunt with other dogs and hunt for you instead of themselves. They also have a natural "check in" with distance that vary with each dog when out hunting or hiking. As short as 300 yds or out to a mile. In other words they keep track of you. After they are done working they make an excellent companion and pet.

My Old Jake Dog
Old Jake was my first cur dog and man was he a good one!
First and foremost Jake had brains! It was the crazy things he could problem solve through that were amazing. He had tenacity, vigor, and he could go all day and every day. I learned he was also a great reproducer of those traits. So, I still try to breed back to Old Jake's blood as much as possible. It's like a guarantee.
One of our breeding pairs.
Buck and Snap
Caleb's Buck (blue collar) is a very intense guy! He is fast on track and solid at the tree. He reproduces those traits with early starting pups that are as intense as Buck himself. Caleb's Snap (orange collar) is a granddaughter to our Old Jake, and she is a good tracking female and solid at the tree.
They are both easy to handle and wide range to get out and find game. Both are silent trackers and seem to produce a high percentage of the same.
