The Pitbull I Know
Four-legged friend affecting touchingly
The glow never ceases
Wagging tail moving swiftly
My heart, it always reaches
Poor reputation affected immensely
No justice does it do
Passed on rumors spreading rapidly
No one has a clue
Apparent brawns intimidating innocently
Bulky and strong is all that it shows
Agile grace awing everlastingly
A wonder no one knows
Loyal morals devoting faithfully
Dedication we couldn't amount
Caring nature loving wholeheartedly
An extent we couldn't count
Internal light gleaming brightly
Radiance we wouldn't try outshine
All-around prominence enjoying happily
I know this pitbull is mine
Madison Thixton, 12yrs old

A person could almost say that the history of the English Coonhound is the history of all coonhounds — and he wouldn’t be too far wrong. With the exception of the Plott Hound, all the UKC breeds of coonhounds have a common ancestry that is deeply rooted in the English Foxhound.
The English was first registered by UKC in 1905, under the name of English Fox & Coonhound. English hounds have excelled in both performance and conformation. The first major coonhound Field Trial of all time, the first Leafy Oak, was won by an English dog called “Bones”, owned by Colonel Leon Robinson. |
