About Black and Tan Coonhound Puppies, Breeders & DogFacts
The Black and Tan Coonhound, an American scent hound developed to trail raccoons and other game, belongs to the Hound Group and is a large, athletic dog typically 23-27 inches tall and about 65-110 pounds. Friendly and easygoing at home but determined, independent, and vocal when working, it suits active owners and benefits from patient training, daily vigorous exercise, and secure fencing due to its strong nose and wanderlust. Its short, dense black coat with rich tan markings is low maintenance but sheds heavily year round; weekly brushing, regular ear cleaning for its long ears, and routine nail and dental care are important, and drooling is generally low to moderate. Not hypoallergenic, the breed can be prone to hip dysplasia, ear infections, eye issues (droopy eyelids), and bloat, so maintaining a healthy weight and monitoring ears and skin help keep it comfortable.
