Caleb's Seminoe Wysdom (Call Sign -SAGE) CGC, is a yellow and white Mountain Cur. Sage hails from the Cowboy State, where her kin-folk specialized in trailing Lions and Bobcats! This lil filly decided to saddle up, head east, and ride with the K9SOS outfit. She is currently training in the trailing discipline. Never heard of a Mountain Cur??? It's believed that the book Old Yeller was based on the typical exploits of a Mountain Cur, as most settlers wouldn't have survived without their trusty Curs.
