if you have a male and female pup, you HAVE to name them dan and ann.
by brother ran a redbone with a couple rat terriers. the coon fights were hilarious. coon would shy away from the redbone, and go after the rat. veentually they had a system. the rat would be the bait, and when the coon made a run at him, the redbone put the chomps on him. hopefully he gets another dog when his kids get a bit older
