This is my old boy riding shotgun, 14 years this October. Where did the time go? A better rat killer never existed. He still wants to run rabbits, hogs and squirrels but he just can't see or hear them. He can still track though. Of course his days of jumping in through the truck window are gone. He sits by the door so I can pick him up. He always rides shotgun and will get in your lap if your in his seat. lol... ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2020/09/full-34238-254796-red2.jpg) 10 years ago ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2020/09/full-34238-254797-photo038.jpg) 12 years ago ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2020/09/full-34238-254798-redbone2.jpg)
Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.

Hard to find a more loyal friend than a good pup.

Makes me happy and sad - nothing will ever compare to the loyalty of a dog. I'm glad you have the time with him. Man I hate to think about dogs getting old...

Nothing like a good truck dog. Had a boston that lived to ride shotgun with me. Sure miss her.
To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.www.NewHopeEquine.com - Health and Healing through Horses.

Looks as if he has paid his dues.

Life wouldn't be near as much fun if it wasn't for our dogs.

Thanks for the kind words. Nothing like a good dog. He was a little chilled so we improvised a bed while his is being washed.  to all you guys who have spoiled your dogs! ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2020/09/full-34238-255022-redscoat.jpg)

Redbone is 14 today! We're going hunting in the morning. He'll just lay in the deer blind until I make a shot and if he needs to he'll track em down. If not he'll just walk up to em and lay down. He's resting up now. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2020/10/full-34238-255364-restingred.jpg)

My shotgun rider made his last ride. 14 1/2 years of being a hell of a dog. Redbone will be missed. Here is a song for the you guys.
