Ross

'dog' is the definition.
(a cur is an aggressive or scruffy dog)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for cur that I've seen before include "Despicable person" , "Inferior dog or one of mixed breed" , "Mongrel; rascal" , "Scoundrel; mongrel dog" , "Aggressive dog" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal, The Independent, the New York Times, the Ink Well xwords, The Mirror, the Evening Standard and the Newsday.
