**************************************************************************************************************************** Rebel Red Kennels will continue to raise few litters and remain focused on producing high quality puppies. Socializing the puppies is a priority for us and we believe that the extra time we spend with them along with their exposure to our other hounds and the sights and sounds of the farm produces a more social and confident puppy. Although we focus on breeding to retain their hunting instincts, we have come to realize that Redbones also make wonderful companions. Our hounds not only hunt and tree raccoons but also are very happy sitting on the couch with us chewing on their favorite toy. Our biggest concern in placing puppies is that they go to “good homes.” Folks considering a Redbone as a companion need to know that although we believe they are great family dogs, they will need plenty of exercise and will not be happy if they do not get the proper time and attention they require. All puppies will be permanently identified via AVID microchips. Our hope is the microchips will offer protection against loss, theft or separation due to natural or personal disaster. Each puppy will have their very own unique identification number. You and your puppy will be enrolled in PETtrack which is the largest private pet recovery network in the United States. We will handle the entire process for you. Shelters, veterinarians and rescue teams scan for microchips. If your puppy is ever lost, our hope is that they will be able to find their way home when their number is scanned and PETtrack is alerted. Operators are available 24 hours a day to help reunite lost pets with their families. PETtrack manages over 1000 phone calls per day and has helped thousands of pets get back home. We are proud to offer you this service. **************************************************************************************************************************** Important Announcements - Updated July 24, 2011 - The 2012 Puppy Schedule! We have experienced many changes over the past two years. A couple of our favorite females were retired and we lost one of our most promising males, Beauregard. The kennels' matriarch, Holly, whelped a very special litter in 2010 of which we kept three puppies. Rebel Red Battle Flag and Rebel Red Penny will get all of my attention in 2011. Their sister, Rebel Red Sadie, is being trained in the mountains of North Carolina by one of my friends. These youngsters represent the future of our kennels. They are the product of years of planning. Pine Meadow Bo is what I believe to be one of the best reproducing males the breed has had in a long time. He passed many years ago but was collected making it possible to access his genes through artificial insemination. I had dreamed about making this cross for some time and am very proud of what I have seen so far from the litter. As I spend more time with Flag and Penny, I realize that I will not be able to give any other puppies the attention they deserve. It is for that reason, we will not have any litters in 2011. I know that I will feel that something is missing this year. It has been a long time since a season has passed without the sound of little puppy feet pitter pattering around the kennel. We plan to pick back up in 2012. For those interested in puppies that carry Rebel Red blood in their pedigrees, send an email and I will put you in contact with folks that are breeding their females this year. A nice young female out of Beauregard and Poppy will likely be bred this year as well as another out of Bingo and Holly. I have hunted with both of these females and they are very solid hounds. ************************************************************************************************************************* Important Announcements - Updated January 11, 2012 - Despite our best efforts, Belle was not successfully bred while in Virginia. I took Belle up to visit Kobie a little early and left her over the holiday. I cannot explain why she was not bred and will begrudgingly accept mother nature's plan. It wasn't meant to be. However, we will try again during her next cycle. I plan to take her up to Virginia as soon as I see any sign of Belle starting her cycle. I do not want to miss again. Thank you to those that have decided to wait on the Belle x Kobie puppies. I am sure that they will be well worth the wait. You can see Kobie by visiting the Timber Chopper Kennels website. His sire is Grand Nite Champion Last Chance Skunk a direct grandson of Hunter's Famous Amos. Skunk was a top hound and solid reproducer. Kobie's dam is none other than Timber Chopper Polly (aka Poppy) who spent lots of time with us over the years. She was retired from our kennel last year and now resides in New York State. The last update we received was very positive. Polly was credited with over 40 raccoons in an abbreviated hunting season and is currently training the next generation at her new home. Stay tuned for more updates as we get closer to summer. Kobie and Belle are both capable hunting hounds that possess both intelligence and an eagerness to please. I expect the puppies to be exceptional. We are ready to begin accepting deposits. Please email me with any questions you may have about Belle, Kobie or the upcoming litter at sam@rebelredkennels.com . ********************************************************************************************************************** Deposits Received for Kobie x Belle Puppies: Male - Robin, New Jersey Male - Ron, North Carolina Female - Jessie, South Carolina **********************************************************************************************************************
REBEL RED PUPPIES
Rebel Red Puppies are bred to be both hunters and companions. It is our belief they can play both roles. Our primary concern is that these puppies find good homes. These puppies will grow up to be very active and need to be in an environment that allows them to get plenty of exercise.

We are
constantly evaluating our females and will breed them only after they prove
themselves in the woods. I do believe that careful examination of the pedigree when
selecting sire and dam is essential and should be used in addition to other
criteria such as intelligence, hunting ability, conformation, health, starting
age, etc.
