 Hi
Ray I sent the check out yesterday. Just an update Bonnie is doing very
well and she is sooo smart. When we first brought Bonnie home she had
some water and some food and then we let her explore the house . All she
wanted to do was go sit at Chris' feet...I thought at first she would
favor him but it turns out she loves us equally...when one of us leaves
the room if she can't follow whoever left she will howl until whoever
left returns or she can find them. She learns daily. Stairs are now
mastered. She can jump off the bed but we try not to let her do that
until she gets a bit bigger. She barks at us when she needs to go out.
She is very good at letting us know what she wants. She lets us sleep in
the bed with her....yes she took over the bed. Today was very hot which
she didn't like to much so she spent most of the day in front of a fan.
I am taking her tomorrow to have her micro chipped. I have the papers in
a safe place and will be registering her soon. I have enclosed
some pictures for you. If you like feel free to add us to your happy
customers...we will possibly getting a male from you in the future.
Thanks again Ray
Dawn, Chris and Bonnie from California |

 Hi
Ray! We purchased a beautiful female Bluetick from you in January 2008.
We named her Birdie and she has fast become a member of our little
family. She is about as lovable as they come and loves snuggling with us
on the sofa (and in the bed, much to my dismay). She is extremely
active, but she is taking to training pretty well and is becoming a
really fun companion. She absolutely loves playing and being around
other dogs and people. She is always the last one standing! She is
almost 5
 months
now and has just found her voice--it is definitely distinctive and you
sure can't ignore it! We could not be happier with her and wanted to
thank you and Blue Tick Kennels for the great dog. She is
extremely loved and although we hate to admit it, extremely spoiled too!
We love her. Thank you! I am attaching a few pictures I thought you
could use for your web site.

 We
bought a pup from you back in Sept of last year. I just wanted to let
you know that she is a wonderful dog and being spoiled rotten on daily.
She sleeps on the couch at night but she runs the farm during the day.
She loves the spring weather. We trail ride on horse back and a couple
of weeks we took her on her first trail ride. She did wonderful,
followed the horses and barked the whole day. Several on the trail
thought it was amazing how she could walk, run and bark at the same time
and last the whole day. When we finally made it back to camp she was
worn out. She did great the next day, she learned to get out in front of
the horses and move on up the trail. She didn't bark as much that day,
thank goodness, it was cute the first day, but not something we were
wanting to hear all day long every ride. We are still having some
problems talking her into crossing moving water, but she is getting
better. She is extremely smart, sometimes smarter than we are. LOL We
love our Belle, and we are so glad we found your web site. Thanks she
was worth every penny. Mona from Kentucky |

 Dear
Ray, My girlfriend Deidre got a male pup from you back in August of
2007. I had always wanted a bluetick and she got him for my birthday.
The whole process of purchasing him was smooth…from picking him out to
picking him up at the airport. From the time we picked him up we have
been in love with him. We couldn’t ask for a better dog. He puts a
smile on our faces every day and has a great personality and what a
nose!!! He was
 only
a few months old and was already treeing squirrels in our yard. I wish
I
 could
have ten of them but I would probably get ran out of my neighborhood!!!
I always tell people we own the world’s most spoiled coonhound…he pretty
much runs the house and he loves to wrestle with his brother…who is a
130 lb. Rottweiler. I’ve attached a few pictures of “T”…keep up the
good work! Brian and Deidre. Granite City, IL |

Ray,
 Thought
you might like to see Judd, the pup I got out of the Harley - Buck
litter. He's doing great and this was taken on Dec.9th just 3 days past
5 months old and he weighed 60lbs. I couldn't be happier with him and I
don't think I've ever had a dog this loyal. When he gets a little more
age on him I can't wait to see how he does in the woods. Thanks for a
great dog and hope you & your family have a Merry Christmas.

 Ray,
hey this is Isaac from Pennsylvania. This is Rebel with a couple of
coons me and my cousin shot he is a very quick learner and is very
obedient and he is also a good pup. The night we shot these coons I got
Jesse (my cousin) to hold him back and I ran down through the woods at
night and when I got out of sight he cut him loose and Rebel tracked the
coon down and chewed on him like he has done it all his life. He is very
interested in
 the
coon and loves to chase it around and chew on it.
Thanks a lot,
Isaac and Jesse from Pennsylvania |

Nah, i
haven't changed my mind about that lil puppy, i'm thinking we're leaving
here saturday, and i
 was
wondering if i was able to come down sunday and pick her up if that was
alright with you. But rosco's a real good dog, thank you for letting me
have the chance to own him. He's about everything I think anyone could
ask for, but for me as pleasure hunter right now, I couldn't ask for
more out of him. Its probly going to get better though its finally
started turning coldso the leaves ought to be leaving. But I will call
you and see when for sure I can get down your way next week.
Thanks, Anthony from NC |

Hey Ray!
N ot
sure if you remember me, but we got our little girl Cheyenne from you
back in August out of
 Magnum
from your buddy out west. She is doing GREAT and has really grown quick.
She's just over 3 months and is already pushing 30lbs! She's extremely
intelligent and loves to track. She's tried treeing her first 'coon a
few weeks ago. She's the friendliest pup and has the sweetest face and
disposition!! Thanks so much again for being so wonderful in helping us
get this beautiful little girl!! We are so happy and have told everyone
about your kennel!!! Thanks so much again!

 Ray,
Here is a picture of our new puppy (Tick) treeing his first coon (play
toy). He seems very smart and is doing well.
Thanks,

 Ray,
Just a short update on Jack; he is settling in well, has met and
gets along with the 4 dogs on the adjacent 2 farms. My wife is
starting to like him in spite of his not being an indoor foo foo
dog; he may well have figured out who the boss is around here, as he
is differential to her, We have kept his feeding schedule as
early morning and early evening, and he seems fine with it.
He is getting used to the place, and accompanies me on my walks
inspecting the farm; the back 4 acres are fenced, so I unleash him
there; he follows his nose a lot (no surprise), but is coming back
when I whistle or call him. The
 front
6 where we have more critters, I keep him on a leash; it is not as
securely fenced (okay for cattle but not dogs), so I am holding off
leaving him free until he has been here longer. Everyone comments on
what a fine looking hound he is; personally, I could not have picked
a better dog in person than Jack; he is everything you said and
more; his pedigree is impressive, but so is his attitude and
willingness to learn; good breeding tells. Sure he is a youngster
and has things to learn, but I want to stress he is a real fine dog
and I surely appreciate your efforts for me in helping choose the
right dog. I am hoping to get a puppy (about 12 weeks old) mid
summer, so I am confident we can do business again. With best
regards, Dave |

Dear Ray & Debra,
Here is a picture of Tank.
We got him from you about a year and a half ago and thought you
might enjoy a picture. He is an amazing dog. We have never had a
dog that demanded so much from us. Don has to run him daily with
the 4 wheeler or life just isn’t right. He gives as much back too.
He has been a constant companion and friend to us both. Thank you
for such a wonderful dog. ~ Don & Donna Martin ~
We hope to get another puppy from you
when Tank is about a year old. -- State of IDAHO |

Hi Ray,
This is Daryl and Amy Bryant from northern NC, we got a
puppy from you some time ago out of the Rambo II bloodline. He sure does
look a lot like Sammy to me. He's 19 months old now and hunting hard,
he's a lot of fun to hunt with. Here's a pic of him. |

Hi Ray;
This is a photo of our puppy, Dixie Blue Dancer, at about 11 weeks old
at the time, on her first exposure to the air boat. She has not yet been
out in the swamp as she is still too small to handle the ride, and the
excitement not to mention the noise.
Dixie rode home with me from your place to Miami, without a fuss or a
single problem. She eased into the house as if she was born here.
What an excellent dog! She is bright, active, inquisitive about her
surroundings, agile and growing by the second. What a voice, she loves
to go out into the woods behind out house and sing in the morning, I
guess just to announce that she is awake and ready to play. You have
done an absolute wonderful job breeding such pups. Thank you. ~ Norm &

Hi Ray; We sent this
off to some friends, thought you may take some pride in your daughter
Dixie Blue Dancer, as she has brought us so much enjoyment, even in her
misdeeds.
It was the night before
Christmas when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring not even a mouse.
When all of a sudden there arose such a clatter
We sprung from our beds to see what was the matter.
And there in the living
room what did we see
It was Dixie Blue Dancer wrapped up in our Christmas tree.
All tangled in tinsel and strung up in lights
The sight was shocker, had she been there all night?
Her bright eyes both
glisten in the sparkling scene
In her mouth was a candy cane, stripped red and green.
What a bad little puppy, what a bad little hound
But what she really wanted was to be get all unwound.
So we tugged at the
branches and pulled at the tree
And soon she was scampering off, finally free
In the blink of an eye she dashed off in the night
Leaving us in the clutter of the trees sparkling light.
To the back yard she
ran with the prize that she had
She is really so good, at being so bad.

 State
of Virginia - Dear Ray, I wanted to touch base with you. We
got Tess from you last year in October. She is a year old now and
she is absolutely the best dog we have ever owned. We adore her.
Hope all is well with you. I am going to have my husband e-mail
you some pictures of her. Thanks, Linda Reagan |

Hello Ray!
Smokie is doing well. She is learning things really fast. She now
weights 16 pounds and growing like a weed! She now has her 3rd set of
shots. The vet said she is very healthy puppy
and said you did a great job with her! Thanks!

They never made a peep
the whole way home. My brother is puppy sitting till x-mas and he is
already attached. They are being spoiled. My kids won't get them till
x-mas morning, they are going to love them. I believe that a dogs start
is very important in how they turn out as adults. It was well worth the
drive, and easy to tell that all your dogs are well cared for. Thanks
again and I’ll keep in touch ~~~~Catherine

 Hello Ray
The pup is out of your blue Sammy an Bobbie ann. He is around 3 1/2
months old. He shows alot of interest in the woods but he is still a
pup. I'm almost positive that hunting him with my hammer dog or even
what training I can give him he will be a great coon dog. He is so alert
about everything. I plan on taking them tonight and let him get to chew
on another one. Thanks so much for everything; I could not have found a
better pup. I will keep you posted on his progress, and i have enclosed
a photo of my hammer dog which I hope to breed Odus to one day.
Thanks again Jason from Tennessee

Hi Ray:
 Well,
it is January 2, and Dixie is just 12 days short of 8 months old, still
growing and loving life to the max. As this photo also shows, she still
likes to sing in the morning. We started her hunting, and she took to it
like a natural, which of course she is. What a nose, cold or hot trail
makes little difference. Once on scent she bawls until I fall over
with joy at the sound of her voice, and she knows I like it too. When
she opens on the track, I can hardly contain myself, what a dog.
Everyone who sees her recognizes what spectacular breeding she is the
product of, even when they know nothing about dogs, she is that special.
Thanks again.
Allison and I, and of
course Dixie Blue Dancer all wish you a happy and prosperous new year,
and the best of hunting. Stay safe Norm

Ray,
Hope the holiday season
was good to you and your family. I just wanted to give you an update
on the pup. She is doing very well. She stands about 24” and
weighs 52 lbs. I am very pleased with her progress in the bird hunting
area. She has lots of natural ability and definitely lots of interest
in hunting. In fact, she shows more interest than a lot of the labs I
have had and she seems like she could go forever in terms of stamina.
She is retrieving ducks, geese and pheasants in kind of a canned
situation there at the house after we have came home from a hunt.
Because these can get pretty aggressive when wounded, I have not let
her retrieve any of these live yet. She is soft-mouthed and I want to
keep that way at least while she is learning. I wanted to get some
pictures for you of her retrieving a duck in the water but
unfortunately, I did not get her going well enough early to get her out
and actually fetch one out of the water before things began to ice up.
She does like water. I have taken her out and shot around her so she
has been exposed to all the components of a hunt and I need to get her
and have her see the whole picture. I have really tried to keep
everything very positive and took lots of extra time teaching her what
is expected. She has been a great fit with the family. She has really
taken ownership to the family (especially my daughter) and is a pretty
good watch dog. She is not terrible aggressive in this area which is
good but if she thinks something is not quite right, she will let us
know with her baying. Some friends of ours got a Bluetick pup out
of South Dakota and it is about the same age as our pup but theirs will
not bay. They did not get the pup till it was about 4 months old but
they are trying to figure out a way to get it to start baying. Any
ideas? Thanks again and I will get some pictures sent your way in
the near future. Jeff - State of Nebraska |
