I'm looking for the title and lyrics of a song my (deceased) father sang when I was a child. As I recall, the song concerns a man who goes out for a walk without his dogs. The man is treed by a bear and calls the dogs to come and save him. The chorus includes the phrase "Your master's almost gone." I believe one of the dogs is named Pampoo. My father was born in Kentucky and I imagine that the song is Appalachian. Does anyone out there know it?

Cheers, A. Carter
