Bee Creek Coonhounds |
This is GrCh Coal Bank Sandy, also known as Mammadog. She was a real pleasure to hunt, super fast on track and she could find a layup as good as any I have seen. She would tree on the wood by herself, but as you can see below she was just as happy to back up and give another dog the tree. She was an excellent pup trainer and she will be missed, |
This is the result of the first cross between Sandy and Zip. Her name is Candy and this picture was taken when she was only 13 months old. There were five pups in this litter and every one of them was running and treeing with the old dogs at ten months old. Candy has been improving steadily. She is a good steady treedog that will split and hold even from her parents. She has turned some heads around here and I am really proud of her. |

This is the ole man, GrNiteCh GrCh Backwoods Screaming Zipper on the wood. He is the measuring stick for our dogs here. Zip is tough to beat whether pleasure hunting or competiton hunting. He is a first tree, on the wood, slobbermouth tree dog that has no reverse. He is also a PKC money winner. His pedigree is exceptional and he is throwing early starting coon minded pups. |

Welcome to Bee Creek Kennels web page. This page is dedicated to the thrill and excitement of coonhunting and the dogs that make it possible. We have followed hounds through the mountains of Tennessee for years and we really like the dogs we have now. This line of dogs is not perfect, but they get the job done in a manner that suits us. They really know how to drive a track and when you get to the tree they will have a coon. We hope you enjoy your visit. Call or stop in any time just give us a day or two notice for visits so we are sure to be home and have the coffee ready. Bring your light and boots and we'll put'em in the woods. |

Remember though you couldn't have done it without Papaw Luther takin you huntin. |
