About Black and Tan Coonhounds
This true American breed was created 300 years ago by combining the Bloodhound with the Foxhound. Originally used as a hunting dog, the Black and Tan Coonhound is a quick, active dog with impressive scenting skills. This dog’s long, floppy ears, beautiful black & tan coat, and droopy jowls give it a distinctive, charming look. The Black and Tan Coonhound makes a sweet, loyal family pet and would do well in Large Living Spaces with plenty of room for activity.
