About Black and Tan Coonhound Dogs

Black and Tan Coonhounds are large, easygoing scent hounds with distinctive black and tan markings and long, velvety ears. Bred to track raccoons and larger game, they have an incredible nose and a deep, melodious bay. Off the trail, they are gentle and relaxed companions.

Adopting a Black and Tan Coonhound means welcoming a sweet-natured, laid-back dog into your home. They are patient with children, get along with other dogs, and are content to lounge around the house between outdoor adventures.
