Helpful hints for training, living with and loving your hound
Houndie Play Date!
Once again hound awesomeness rules !!!
SOOOOO Riley invited a new friend over today. Hounds are notoriously friendly with other dogs – they are bred to work together in packs – Jed and Riley B were awesome. My hairstylist Jordan and I were so impressed with how they handled playing together for the first time. They ran, they leaped, they played, they rested, they ran, and played some more. They barked in unison at my landlord’s dog next door (defending the homeland). So proud of our two awesome hounds !!!
Happy Hound Update
Just wanted to share the web site address for “coonhound companions” again — Anna Nirva (one of the founders) is a great spokesperson for our adorable coonhound breeds and this site has a wealth of information for anyone that wants to know more about coonhounds.

Did I mention Riley B’s new friends ? And hounds are great with other dogs because they are bred to work in groups ?? Well look at these manners!!
- Uhh You are about finished with the water right?
Another Good Day
Riley was awesome on our walk today — he did “sit stay” while two ladies went by – they were walking and just raving about how cute he was as they went past us — Riley stayed right with me although I could tell he was just DYING to go meet the ladies –

So much knowledge about coonhounds!!
I want to share a link started by a group that includes my great coonhound friend Anna Nirva who was instrumental in helping me adopt my friend Riley B !!! I am forever in her debt for that !! This is an awesome source of information about our beloved coonhounds – just in case you were thinking about adopting one — and of course we hope you ARE!!!

A walk in the park !!
Riley is becoming quite the obedient hound !! Super great on the leash tonight !! (off leash is really his specialty !) We passed joggers, bicyclists, AND another dog with no major incidents.
HOWEVER – there was this pesky squirrel that was his undoing !!! (Squirrel encounter needs work)
