Very sorry to hear about Little Red. She was beginning to be a household name. I nicknamed a little fast 6 yr old on my sons baseball team Get Ahead Litttle Red. She was the talk of the coon hunting world. Sorry again

Very sorry to hear this news....
Russ I shook your hand at walker days and congratulated you on your win,I am truely sorry for your loss.
I know the bond a hunter has with a hound, and how devastating it is when they get killed,it`s the worst thing about this sport!

Mr. Bellar,
I am truly sorry for your loss. That is one of the hardest ways to lose a wonderful hound.

Although we did not agree with her being registered as a redbone we are very sorry for your loss. It is never easy to lose one and very sorry you had to witness such a horrible sight. She was a nice coondog, she proved that.

Russ I am terribly sorry to hear about lil red. I hunted with red saturday at the zones last year and we had a good hunt and red did what she needed to in order to win and Mike was a great sportsman and a good handler. I know she will be missed and I am glad that I got to see her go.

So sorry for you loss of Lil Red. She was a great coon dog with a great handler. It was an absolute pleasure to draw out with her and Mike at the local club. There is no denying that those 2 were an absolute class act together!!! Again so so sorry for your loss.

WOW.... not much a person can say....Seems like the Loyal(Friends) and the good ones(Lil red) Just don't seem to stick around as long as we would like.....I'm sure there will be others, but just not the same.... only time will help..Curt

I've really enjoyed seeing this little coondog stir up the pot...RIP
