Meet our dogs...

This ferocious beagle is Max (aka Maxwell). He thinks he's a lot bigger than he is. He was hit by a car last summer but there was no major damage. He's a sweetie. When he's asleep you can pick him up and move him anywhere and he'll stay asleep. He's a great snuggler. He's a favorite of our neighbor. He's actually been inside their house to visit ( I haven't even had that privilege yet)!
The black and tan coonhound is Yoakam (aka Yoke, Yoker) He's a good ole country dog. He greets us in the driveway and I swear he's trying to smile. He'll jump in the car and ride up the driveway with you. He loves teasing the other dogs as well. He and Max are buddies and the only two dogs we let run loose through the neighborhood. He let's the other dogs know how good it is to be free by running past the fence and showing off.

The red colored dog with the graying face is Chassis (aka Chass, Chassis Lynn). She was my first dog and we have been through a LOT together. She's my guardian angel. She's the best behaved dog we have. I couldn't have asked for anything better in a dog. She gets special treatment because she has seniority.
The treeing walker coonhound is Spook (aka Spooky doo). He was so shy when we first got him (hence the name). He is so pretty, the picture doesn't do him justice. He needs to be entered in a bench show. He used to bark at me and run away but we're buddies now (he knows who to go to for spoiling).

The red ticked English coonhound is Earl (I call him lughead). He's still a puppy! He's huge! And LOUD! I really don't know what to think of him. I've tried to talk my husband into giving him up because I think he is going to be too much for him to handle when he goes hunting but I can't convince him. He can be really sweet sometimes but still very clumsy. And he back talks me. He just has to get he last bark in.
The jack russel/beagle mix is Sadie (aka Sadie bug, Buggles). I rescued her from the local shelter only to find out that night she had Parvo. So she ended up being a little more expensive than she was supposed to because I didn't have the heart to put her down. She can jump really high and is full of energy. She thinks she's bigger than she is as well. (I think most small dogs are like that.) She loves to snuggle too. When her and Daphne get together it's double trouble. Sadie's the bad influence though.
The white and red beagle/feist mix is Daphne (aka Daff or Daffodil). We got her from a friend so Sadie would have someone her size to play with. She is super sweet. I love scratching her neck cause her lip curls up like she's smiling. She loves to give everyone kisses even all the other dogs. Ella picked her out of the litter. She wanted the YEYO (yellow) one as her brothers and sisters were black and white. And Ella named her as well-she's in a Scooby Doo thing. Isn't she cute?

The English coonhound (outside pic) is of Ruby (aka Ruby Sue). She is our newest addition. She was shy at first too. I don't think she had a chance to run around and be a dog. She's changed so much in the weeks we have had her. She comes to greet us now and you can just see she is happier than when we first met her. My husband traded some fishing equipment for her! Ruby is supposed to be Caleb's hunting dog. I love to see her running and playing with the other dogs cause at first it was almost like she didn't know how to do such a thing!
The red and white English coonhound (on the couch) is Mandy(aka Mandy Lou). Talk about a sweetheart. She didn't know what spoiled was until she met us. We let her in and she took up residence on the couch (her favorite place in the whole world). My husband swears she hunts better since we've let her come inside (yeah whatever). She's a happy go lucky girl. Mandy is afraid of thunderstorms though. She'll climb on top of you when they are going on and that's a lot of dog to comfort from a storm!
