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.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

32°F to 55°F

Generally mild, but periodic ice storms can make sidewalks and trails dangerous for a few days at a time. Have indoor enrichment plans ready for icy days, and keep paw wax on hand for salty surfaces. Most winter days are comfortable for regular outdoor walks on the trail network.

Spring

48°F to 78°F

Mar – May

Pleasant temperatures make spring ideal for exploring Plano’s extensive hike-and-bike trails. Severe thunderstorm and tornado risk peaks during this season, so keep a pet emergency plan in place. Wildflowers along the trail system make for scenic walks with your pet.

Summer

75°F to 97°F

Intense heat with temperatures regularly approaching 100°F makes outdoor time dangerous during midday. Walk only before 7 AM or after 9 PM, and always test pavement temperature first. Keep pets in air conditioning during peak hours and ensure constant access to fresh water.
