<![CDATA[In American tall tales, the axe-handle hound is said to be a fearsome critter of Minnesota and Wisconsin.]]>In American tall tales, the axe-handle hound is said to be a fearsome critter of Minnesota and Wisconsin. It resembles a dog with an axe-like body, and only eats the handles of axes which have been left unattended. An axe-handle hound travels from camp to camp searching for its next meal, and strongly dislikes axe handles made from red oak.
