Redbones as pets......
« on: April 27, 2009, 06:37:26 PM »
I have always wanted a redbone coonhound as a pet.  I think they are one of the most beautiful dogs there is.  But i don't know anyone in my area that has one just as a pet and was wondering if anyone has experience with them as family dogs and not full time hunters.

I have a purebred bluetick as a pet... Not bad but a lot of mistakes have been made by both of us

My Mom's neighbor has a cougar certified red bone. She is a nice dog unless a neighborhood kitty is going by the kennel.

They make great pets, IF you can keep them exercised.  Boredom is when they and most hounds get in trouble.

wheather or not you let them live in the house with you makes a huge difference. And how much time you spend with them as any dog. Absolutely loved mine. I did hunt him.
