About this title: Seventeen-year-old Danny Pickett, living with his father in the woods on the Haggin Estate, is a born dog-handler. When he first sees Haggin's Irish setter, it's love at first sight for both of them. Haggin sees Danny's talents and lets him keep Red to train him as a hunter. Together the devoted dog and young man face many dangers in the wilderness they call home, but it is the savage killer, a bear called Old Majesty, who becomes the greatest test of their courage.

"one of my memories from my boy and dog phase. i thought there were definitely not enough girl and dog books. but there was island of the blue dolphins and julie of the wolves.. and a million other BOY and dog books. so i read them. continued to develop a sharp eye for sexism and respect for animal intelligence :)"
"I read a million of these dog books as a kid-- for a year or so, Kjelgaard was my favorite author. Only slightly spoiled by my dad telling me that Irish Setters are the dimmest of the dim dogs."
"i can't really remember much about this book, since i read it when i was like 8, besides finding it in the library and that i really liked all the books i read by this author."
