| National Redbone Coonhound AssociationI got some response back from my question So with a increase at the pump How much has it affected things for you this year ?Dave Pelzer says the highest he paid was $ 4.26. He lost a dog over the winter that was only 3 years old an close to that prime age. They have been burning up in the middle of Minnesota for the past 3 years as he said it's been dry. He said with that in mind to send any extra rain his way. I'm sure southern Indiana would have liked to as they got swamped in June.Dale Young said they haven't helped any. He said that he's been surprised that the bigger hunts have held the attendance. I'm kinda shocked as he has retired aka Dutch. I didn't think he would ever do that. That has taken some wind outta the sails. They are still poking along with what they have as well as trying to have some fun. He would like to assure that Rim Fire that won opposite sex on the bench at National Days looks better than the picture that was taken. He said something about the tired hot old handler was needing a rest. Just poking at you Dale.Jean Ramme says she is doing much better. She said her one dog that was 12 had been really sick but the vet figured out what the problem was an is doing good. I believe she will be at Autumn Oaks. Yes providing the IF factor. That's always something life tends to throw at you.I lost my oldest dog the third of July. She kept filling up. I thought at the signs her kidneys were failing. I believe that's what put her away. She didn't seem to show signs of being in pain. We were together for 13 years. I'll have memories of her. Sundown Sue was just over 15 years old.Don't wait till the last minute as Red book ads can be sent in. December 1 is the deadline. You can brag on your hounds, take a picture of all those trophies, give a background for future references. Those are something's you can consider.How's your dues ? Time to renew ?
