Every one a good looking hound !

[Rabbithoundjb]

some of the best dogs I ever owned.

There is some dog power in those pictures. Fancy and Sophy are all that's left of them now.

Great pictures.
The good dogs are gone too quickly and the grandkids grow up too fast.
My best bitch at that time is now 10, and my grandkids that are about the same age as yours are now as tall as me.

[Rabbithoundjb]

You are right about that Newt. Life is but a blink.

[Rabbithoundjb]

All of them are gone now. Sophy passed a couple months ago.

Hate to see the old ones go. My girls are all getting some age on them now.
But I know you've got some young pups coming on. How are those Dan pups looking?

[Rabbithoundjb]

Dana they're 8 months old. All 3 are started. 1 of the females is really nice for her age. I turned her out with 3 older slower dogs Thanksgiving morning for about 2.5 hours and she got a jump, somel checks and drove the track out front of those old dogs more than I would have thought. She looked really good. The other 2 are just started. They are waaaaay behind her but like I said they're only 8 months old. She reminds me of Dan, not quite as rough as he was but wants to drive the track hard and fast. I really like her as you can probably tell.

What is worse is when one let's time get away from them and let the line they have kept dies out. I had a kennel full of the line I liked and let the last male die without breeding him to the females I had. Now I am down to my last female that is 12 years old and NEVER been bred. I have tried over the past several years to get her bred but never was able to catch her just right or she would not do so. Looks like I'm done when she is gone.

Some of the best I have owned.
