About Coonhound Dogs

Coonhounds are a group of scent hound breeds developed in the United States for tracking raccoons and other game. They share common traits including incredible noses, melodious voices, and gentle, friendly temperaments. They are as comfortable on the couch as they are on the trail.

Adopting a Coonhound brings a sweet, easygoing companion who is loyal and affectionate with their family. They are typically good with children and other dogs, making them excellent family pets for those who can provide enough exercise and can appreciate their occasional vocalizations.

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.
