Belvedere or “Belvie” as we called him, was the epitome of a stubborn coonhound. When he honed in on something, whether it was a treat, a squirrel or the UPS truck, there was no redirecting him until he was ready. He was a part of our family for over 12 years and we believed him to be nearly 16 years old when he passed away peacefully at home on July 19. He was our beautiful, coonhound boy and he is dearly missed by his humans and his four-legged family.
