Hey HOBO...
Who from CC got Star? Im still pretty sore bout having to back out on that. I was itchin for that lil gyp pretty bad but I guess it just wasnt meant to be. But, I guess everything works out sometime or another and Ill tell ya why. Three weeks ago there was a coon event at my local club so I went with my hunting buddy and a regular guy from the club had a litter of pups there. Well, I sorta hung around the pups all day and talked about hounds with the guy all day cuz he knows my dad and our hounds pretty well. Before the night hunt entries closed he called my hunting buddy out and asked if itd be all right for him to give me one of the pups. Man, my huntin buddy sure didnt wanna take responsibility for it so he said "its up to her dad- the pup can ride with me, but it aint my decision!". We tried calling my dad on a cell phone, but it died so that didnt help none. Well, I asked Mike(my huntin buddy) if I should just give it a shot and the guy who had the pups said hed come get it back if dad said no. Mike looked the pup all over pretty good and said "Give it a shot if ya really wanna" so I did. I stayed for the hunt cuz my buddy was MOH. At 4am I walked in the door to my dad's house. I went upstairs, woke my brother up, and he came downstairs to see Dutchess. Then I told him to go wake dad up. He went all bug eyed and said "NO WAY IN HELL ARE YOU CRAZY?" but I said Id beat his head into the pavement if he didnt so he did(IM so mean to my brother lol). Dad came down in his boxers with his eyes half closed and cussin under his breath. He took one look at that pup and said "What the hell is THAT?" All i did was laugh and tell him who gave it to me. Well, needless to say Dutchess is still here. My grandma is watchin her till we build a new pen, but I finally got my pup. Shes Deanwood Drifter, Houses, and Hillbilly Mac bred. Her momma is the guy who gave it to me's female GRNITECH GRFCH GRCH PR Moores Candy and her daddy is a dog from Ohio called PR Sopers Mountain Buster who Ive never heard of. Anyways, the little girl is starting her training this weekend as she just turned 3 months old. Shes beautiful, and LOUD mouthed. When shes older I plan to breed her and I got 3 dogs I like; my own male, Jammer, your Boone dog(when ya puttin him for stud?), and Hadden's Rock A Little More. Its quite a time till then, but Im a dreamer. Anyways...I hear the guy may be breeding her Mama again to his own male and hes made that cross before. Ive heard tons of good things on the first litter out of those 2, so if Mom moves into her new house by the time of that next litter Ill probably get a half brother or sister to Dutchess.
here's Dutchess' webpage if ya wanna see some pics of the girl:

I just had to let ya know all that, but while Im respectfully in a Boone thread Im gonna e-mail ya a pic of PR River Ridge Bawlin' Duke who is a great-grandson of Dohoney's Boone. Duke's sire was PR Highland Stump whose sire was GRNITECH GRCH PR Siper Creek Stump- a son of Boone and NITECH PR Williams Southern Star. Duke was by far the best dog we've ever owned and it was unfortunate that he hung himself to death at age 5. We only ever bred Duke once and it was accidentally to an English female. However, the son we own from this litter is beginning to show a lot of his Dad's woods personality. Duke was a dog with a lot of heart and grit, very loud, and very colorful too. Ill email that picture of him in just a second. Too bad I didnt have him to make it to the Boone hunt  Maybe if you start having it annually Ill eventually have a Boone dog to hunt. I still want a LOBO pup before its too late. Im crossing my fingers.
