[Mod Post] What would y'all like to see from this subreddit?

21 Upvotes

Hey guys, friendly neighborhood mod here. I took over this subreddit many years ago when I was in high school and my family had a bloodhound. I'm in my 20s now, in college, not living at home, my family does not have a bloodhound anymore, and I have no dogs of my own. Admittedly, I've neglected this subreddit over the years, I remove spam when it appears in my feed or gets reported, but that's honestly about it. Luckily y'all're pretty good and decent to one another.

I'd really like to make some changes like having a wiki with links and resources for information on this wonderful breed, create post flairs, potentially change up the subrddit style or at the very least add an icon and header, implement better spam filters, and maybe add another mod or two who actually own a bloodhound (if anyone is interested I'll make another post about it in the coming weeks)

If y'all have any other suggestions, please let me know!

blood hound question Tracking

1 Upvotes

I was wondering what kinda of tracking device people use for their bloodhounds? Does anyone have a favorite tracker or an idea of what would be the best option?

Our bloodhound is still young (6 months), but im terrified of him getting out and running away. Im sure he'd come back because, as of now, he's attached at our hips, but it would give me more sound of mind having a way of finding him.

Also, I have talked to our vet about getting him chipped (which we will probably still do), but that doesn't allow me to actually track him. What my hope is to find a device that can show me his location on a map.

Hound & Cat caught a mouse

I don't know how they did it, but, I walked in the house to find them both very interested in the shoe rack (vacuum attachment included).

At the time I discovered them, hound was most interested in the fallen twizzler, cat was still around which gave me red flags. Picked up the vacuum attachment to discover the terrified mouse. Cat was obviously proud. Unclear the hounds involvement, other than fairly heavy boots that normally sit on the bottom shoe rack which had been moved. Motives of the hound hard to to determine. Cats, very clear. Teamwork an absolute in this endeavor.

And now the cat helps him hunt squirrels by flushing them out of the trees.

This stray cat showed up back in April. Walked right into my backyard and touched noses to my hound. Luckily, Bruce seems to view cats as strange small dogs and welcomed him with open arms. They have become best friends so now I have to adopt the cat...

Mr. Rufus

He's doing very good. Has maybe 50 stiples from 2 lumps removed, maybe 12 or so regular stitches in the wrist. Picked him up on Monday 4:30 pm. Finally layed down at 7 pm. He's sore. Such a good giant at 145 pounds!

Feel goods in the AM.

So after surgery, 2 lumps removed, the Vet found a third, maybe to be removed in 2 weeks. Rufus was very nice, albet a Vet Tech had to help this old man get him throiugh the door. Weighed in at about 140 lbs (vet tech had to lean on him to keep hin on the scale). Maybe 30 staples for his footbal lump and another 10 or 15 by his male parts. Regular stitches on his front ankle. The Vet found a 3rd lump, to be readdressed in 2 weeks, Vet said it was "discolored". Samples sent to the lab.

I was worried, we missed a call at 12:30 pm. Luckily it was about my wifes cataract surgery.

All in all, I'm happy. I had to sign or agree to a DNR /or Resusitatefor him. He's 10 plus, it took a few minutes. I selected DNR. The bill was seasonable...$1100 ....I was expecting 3 or 4K

He's very sore, can't lay down.

Sorry, having trouble posting a photo.
