Red Dog Road
The Road to your left, running to Canton, Mississippi, was opened in 1834 and named
for Choctaw Indian Chief Ofahoma or Red Dog. Like other Choctaw, he had accepted the
way of his European neighbors and had become a farmer.

Chief Ofahoma signed the Treaty of Dancing Rabbit Creek on September 27, 1830, by
which the tribe agreed to leave this area and move to Oklahoma. Nearby is the city
of Ofahoma.
