Redbone Coonhounds

Im 16 but i love the look of these dogs! can anybody tell me what they are like so i can convince my parents into getting one??

My wife and I got a Redbone pup in December. She is a beauty, has a great disposition, gets a mix of outside time and inside since we couldn't put her out in the cold when we got her. She is very bright, playful and intelligent. Can't wait to take her to the Red Fern Festival next month. Have been leash training her, she didn't like it very much at first, but grew accustomed to it quickly. Now she gets excited when I get the leash out cuz she knows she is going for a trip. Can't wait to start hunting with her. She plays with the cats but learned quickly to leave the chickens alone after the rooster flogged her all the way to the door.

I am also the and I add VERY PROUd parent of a redbone puppy. Jackson is a 10 week old male and he is a wonderful puppy. Although a lot of people may be quick to purchase this breed because of their "cuteness" and very sweet temperment, don't be fooled. They are a very high energy dog and need lots of attention and room to run. Me and my fiance have had many almost sleepless nights because of house breaking and then wanting to play. It is almost like having a new baby in the house, but he is worth ever minute of it!! We love him sooooo much!!
