Introduction

Known for their striking coat, musical howls, and unwavering tenacity, Bluetick Coonhounds are medium to large dogs, bred for tracking and hunting game. They exhibit a friendly and intelligent temperament, making them suitable for active families who can manage their high exercise needs. Their dark blue mottled coat, adorned with black spots on the back, ears, and sides, gives them a distinguished appearance, while their keen sense of smell and stamina make them exceptional working dogs. They thrive on companionship and require regular mental and physical stimulation.
