Daddy's
Ridge Running Bo' Jangles
Hello, this little
story is about our Bo. We found out about a lady in our
community who had
a litter of Bloodhound pups, my best friend and I
went to see there
condition, we heard it was not very well, and as we suspected
it was not.
There was not enough hard core evidence to press charges on
this so called "back
yard breeder" so we just bought them all and found
other people to take
them. That was the only way to get them out of
there and she agreed
not to raise any more Bloodhounds.
We have truly grown
to love our Bo, he is truly one of a kind.
But, like I have said
before, Bloodhounds are not the choice dog
for most people.
Unless you have lots
of room, lots of money, lots of chew toys,
lots of time, energy
and are strong as a ox please don't get a
Bloodhound.
Please do research on any breed you get, although
these are wonderful
dogs and wonderful pets they are not the lazy coach potato
they may seem to be
on T.V.
