About Bluetick Coonhound Dogs

Bluetick Coonhounds are striking scent hounds with a distinctive dark blue, mottled coat and a deep, bawling voice. Originally bred for trailing raccoons and other game, they have one of the most powerful noses in the dog world. At home, they are gentle, affectionate, and surprisingly mellow.

Adopting a Bluetick Coonhound brings a sweet-natured, loyal friend into your family. They are great with children and other dogs, enjoying a good couch session as much as a trail run. Their soulful eyes and musical voice give them endless charm.

Adopting in Phoenix, AZ

Phoenix offers a pet-friendly desert lifestyle with mild winters perfect for outdoor adventures with your adopted companion. Local shelters are home to many loving animals who thrive in the Valley of the Sun.

With scenic hiking trails at South Mountain and Papago Park, spacious dog parks, and a growing number of pet-friendly businesses, Phoenix is a great place to give a shelter pet a second chance at happiness.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

42°F to 68°F

Dec – Feb

Phoenix winters are perfect for Chihuahuas. The mild, dry weather matches their Mexican desert origins. They can enjoy outdoor time at dog parks and short trail walks without needing extra layers. Nighttime temperatures in the 40s may warrant a light sweater.

Spring

55°F to 90°F

Mar – May

Chihuahuas handle Phoenix spring better than most breeds due to their warm-weather origins. However, by May the ground temperature becomes dangerous for their tiny, low-to-ground paws. Shift walks to grass surfaces and early morning hours as temperatures climb.

Summer

78°F to 106°F

Jun – Aug

Despite their desert ancestry, Phoenix summers are too extreme even for Chihuahuas. Pavement reaches 170°F and their bellies are inches from the scorching ground. Strictly indoor with brief predawn potty breaks on grass only. Their small size means dehydration sets in faster.

Fall

58°F to 95°F
