THIS ALBUM IS DEDICATED TO OUR COONHOUNDS (AND A FEW FRIENDS LOL).USING DOG TO PURSUE GAME HAS BEEN AROUND FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS .COONHOUNDS HAVE BEEN SELECTIVLY BRED TO REFINE TRAITS THAT ARE MOST DESIREABLE TO THIS PERTICULAR TYPE OF HUNTING.NOT ALL COONHOUNDS MAKE A "COONDOG".IN FACT A VERY GOOD COONDOG IS QUITE HARD TO FIND AND WILL SELL FOR LARGE AMOUNTS OF MONEY.A HOUND THAT CONSISTANTLY PRODUCES OTHER GOOD COONDOGS IS WORTH A MINT AND PRICES SOMETIMES GO VERY HIGH FOR THESE SOUGHT AFTER DOGS. A GOOD COONHOUND WILL QUICKLY AND CORRECTLY FINE THE TRAIL OF A COON,FOLLOW IT TO WHERE THE COON WENT (UP A TREE ,IN A BARN ETC.) LETTING YOU KNOW ALONG THE WAY THAT IT IS FOLLOWING A COON BY A LONG DRAWN OUT BARK CALLED A "BAWL". WHEN THE COON IS FINELY LOCATED IN THE CORRECT SPOT A HOUND WILL THEN STAY AT THE TREE BARKING THE WHOLE TIME IT TAKES YOU TO GET THERE.SOME DOGS WILL BARK SHORT NOTES IN A CONSISTANT PATTERN .THIS IS CALLED A "CHOP".SOME WILL DO BOTH BAWL AND CHOP OTHERS WILL ONLY BAWL. THE DOG SHOULD NOT GET RUDE OR MEAN TOWARDS ANY OTHER DOG WHO TREES A RACOON WITH IT. SOUNDS SIMPLE HUH? NOT ALWAYS SO.READ UP ON COONHUNTING AND YOU WILL SEE SOMETIMES HOW DIFFICULT IT IS FOR THE DOGS TO TREE UP THE RACOON AND YOU WILL HAVE A MUCH BIGGER RESPECT FOR THOSE OL HOUND DAWGS. I KNOW I DO. COONHUNTING IS GREAT FAMILY TOGETHER TIME AND WONDERFUL EXCERCISE! IF YOU LOVE DOGS WHAT COULD BE BETTER? THE DOGS SHOW A LOVE AND PASSION FOR THEIR "WORK" AND YOU WOULDNT BELIEVE HOW EXCITED THEY GET WHEN THEY HEAR YOU COMING OR SEE YOUR HUNTING LIGHT.
