Red Bone Coon Hound Visit







Our friend adopted a rescue Red Bone Coon Hound from Tennesee and her name is Bailey Jane. Now I suppose some of you might be wondering how a hound dog from Tennesee makes its way to the heartland. Well if you are lucky enough to be rescued by the Coon Hound rescue the new owners are required to keep the dog inside. Turns out not too many people want a Hound that has to live inside. Lucky for us because Bailey Jane is just about the sweetest dog you ever want to meet. Unless you are Shaker Baby.

Our friend brought Bailey Jane in and Music and Russ immediately remember their old friend and the play began. It was a few minutes before we realized Shaker was not around so we went to find him. He was in the bedroom hiding from the big bad dog (aka Sweet Bailey Jane).

So we worked with Shaker a bit to see if he would warm up to Bailey but he wasn't haven't any of it. We knew Bailey would not hurt Shaker so we decided to let things run their course. As the evening wore on everyone settled down to nap and all was well until Bailey got up. Shaker took one look at that big dog and jumped on Music. Poor Music.


Now Music is thinking "okay I've rested let's play some more", while Shaker is thinking "should I jump off the couch and escape?" We rescued Shaker from the precipace and saved ourselves the expense of putting his shoulders back together and brave heart spent the rest of the evening on my lap on the other couch.
