went yesterday to the cemetary. I didn't even know it existed. Really enjoyed the history behind the place.

My grandfather was a coon hunter and had a love for a good coon dog. He said there was no sweeter music than hearing a hound bay at a treed coon. Thank you for having such a wonderful place for these beautiful animals. I was truly humbled.

Went to visit here last weekend. I have always wanted to go. It was a beautiful place. I took lots of pictures. I loved the way that it was kept with the flowers on all the graves. Bless all the dogs in heaven. Thanks for giving us this wonderful site to visit

I love all dogs. I grew up in Lynchburg Va and my Great uncle raised them. He had Blk & tans and Redbones. I used to love going out to his farm to see them. I have 4 dogs now, none coon dogs, and love them dearly.

Love them dogs, always was proud of 'em. My sis-in-law who's a foreigner from up north drove by that way and saw the sign for the cemetery and said "Why would someone have a "corn dog cemetery". You would have to know her, she's a natural blonde. I told her a person knows she ain't from the south. Corn dog....shames a good coondog someone saying that. Lord help her. Lord bless them dogs.

If you are ever in Tuscumbia, Al. You should visit the cemetary. This was my second visit and I just think it is a great place.

Today was an awful day - I had to put my coondog, Freddy, down. She was Walker & Blue Tick, a cross dog. The local hunters made fun of her years ago as she was a cross dog, and she came from the shelter, but that all stoppped when she beat them all in the water race at Game Fair! She was almost 14 and suffered this last year from congestive heart failure. Two days ago, her kidneys went.
So glad I got to see your cemetary in January - now I have to carve a marker for her - it will probably say "Best Coondog ever" as she was all of that.

I saw the movie sweet home Alabama. In the movie they showed the cementery so I looked it up and found this web page. Ok now I want to plan a trip to visit the site.

Such a true honor to our best friends. I hope to visit someday and honor the memory of the hounds that are there.

What a great tribute to the coon dogs and our Southern heritage. I was born in 1947 and raised in Florence AL and I didn't visit the site until now. I wish I had seen it sooner. It would have been great if the movie Sweet Home Alabama could have used the real site instead of the movie prop set up somewhere.

I am so happy to see that this wonderful way of honoring our beloved companions exists. Alas, I lost my 16-yr old redbone, Major Jake Hillbilly, in January of 2009. I have yet to locate another who is the right-suitable 2nd best dawg ever (MJH will always be first), but I scan the web every now & then in hopes of finding one. I wish I had been aware of your resting spot when I lost Major Jake. He so loved rallying the troops, I just know your place would have been the perfect launching pad to his ideal here-and-ever-after.

I cant wait to come visit the cemetery. We own, and hunt Redbone Coonhounds. We own Conner Kennnels in western NC. We breed the famous Timber Chopper and Fireball bloodlines. Wish my female could stay with us forever but when she must go I hope she can be buried in the cemetery!!!
