Huckleberry


Who would name a dog Huckleberry? My son David, that's who. He said the dog has a huckleberry shaped spot on top of his head, and when he goes out he often leaves a huckleberry offering in his neighbors yard. The owner is absentee, only comes there during hunting season half a dozen times a year, and by that time the offering will be long gone.
Huckleberry was abandoned by his former owner when he was hauled off to the pokey for probation violation, and David works for the city, found the dog and brought him home. He was half starved, and is still painfully thin, but is beginning to put on a little weight. He is friendly, and seems to be good-natured. He is mostly coon hound and looks it. I am sure he will be much more handsome after gaining a few more pounds.
