About an hour after we set up, a bus came in and parked right next to our friends, Jere & Ronnie. They had a bloodhound puppy, about 7 months old and he was not accustomed to being tied up. Apparently, he was able to roam at will at home. Well, let me tell you, this puppy barked almost the entire time we were there!!! The reason being, his owners would just go off and leave him tied up, a couple of times they were gone in their car and the rest of us had to put up with his barking!! Talk about rude!!! It would seem that he wasn't very disciplined, the few times I went up to pet him, he would get so excited that he wanted to jump up on me and he had a habit of biting at my jacket sleeve. He just needed to play with a dog of his own size or maybe run his legs off somewhere out of the state park, just to release some of that pent up puppy energy.

Once, while we were walking Star, we let her get close to him and it was plain they wanted to play together. Ronnie was afraid he would hurt her, because he was a lot bigger, but, I think she would have been able to dodge him quite well, as he was still in the clumsy puppy stage. Anyway, we managed to get a couple of cute pictures of this monster dog.
