My New Hunting Partner

[Deff]

Them hound-dawg pups sure are cute aint they?  
We have a black and tan cross, 14 years old.  She  used to tree coons and bobcats but mostly just sleeps in the house now ---  part of the family.  Never managed to get her to track mtn lion  ("Cat track? -- what cat track? -- I don't smell nutton--- Now let's get Outta Here!") or blood trail game  but she was good about staying out of trouble. She never bothered the wife's "kitties",  but if a stray cat came around -- it was sent up a tree right pronto! .  We are planning to head over to Missoula  this weekend to pick up a Plott - Redbone cross puppy.  Hope it turns out half as good  as our old one --------
