Ripley, you are such an adorable dog, I love your black muzzle, black "eyeliner" and your deep reddish coat color! I learned a lot about coonhounds, about your collapsing ripcages, so interesting! Have fun being Dog Of The Day!! Robin From KS

Ripley Fern, you are a beautiful girl and I love your name. It sounds like a song, so no wonder you like to bay/sing, you're just living up to your name. I've never heard of a collapsible ribcage before, you are quite a unique doggy. Oh that's awful about the bee sting, you stay away from bees in the future, pretty girl. Wish I could give you a hug and a treat. Congratulations Ripley Fern on being our DOTD.

Riply, You are a very pretty girl--love your red color. It sounds as if you are just a big ole sweet lap dog. I did not know that a coonhound could collapse its rib cage--very interesting. I've heard coonhounds on a hunt before and to me it is a lovely sound as they bay. It is obvious that your family loves you very much and vice versa. I enjoyed all the photos. I hope you and your family have a long life together. Congrats on being DOTD! Kay in NC
