Time to revisit the coonhound codebook  – always good for a laugh !!

Borrowed from a post on the awesome facebook page”#lifewithmyrescued coonhound”.   (Riley B NEVER misses it)  Brent Taggart graciously allowed me to borrow his coonhound code idea and I am revisiting his post here — stay tuned for more HILARIOUS updates from the “coonhound codebook”.

NEVER pass up an opportunity for a good howling.

A special thank you to Doug Scheidt, Chaz James and Kevin Lum for allowing me to feature their awesome hounds !

     Perfect form Edgar !! PERFECT !!!!

Favorite nesting spots will be tested constantly, typically in the most inconvenient, inappropriate or comical locations, and always totally at the hound’s discretion.

When riding in a car with humans, it is expected for the hound to help navigate by pressing into the driver’s space and peering intently at the road ahead. Periodic baying, whirling, drool slinging and snoofing may be used at the hound’s discretion.

In order to secure a full tactical advantage for optimum bed position with the human or humans inhabiting said  bed space,  it is of the utmost importance to maneuver into a deceptively tight coonie curl, gradually unfurling into full out bed “take over” position as unsuspecting humans sleep.
