Bluetick Coonhound
Friendly. intelligent. Yours.
Nobody tells you that a Bluetick Coonhound comes with a built-in soundtrack. That baying, deep, musical, impossible to ignore, starts the moment they catch a scent, which is approximately every three seconds of every walk you'll ever take together.

The Bluetick Coonhound experience
You know you're a Bluetick Coonhound owner when...
●The bay. THE BAY. That deep, rolling, melodic howl that carries for miles and announces to the entire neighborhood that a squirrel exists.
●The nose-down walk where they become physically incapable of moving in a straight line because every blade of grass has a story that must be investigated.
●Those big, droopy ears dragging through their water bowl, their food bowl, and every puddle within a three-county radius.
●The couch takeover, all 65 pounds of spotted hound somehow occupying every cushion while leaving you approximately four inches of seating.
●That mournful expression they deploy when you leave the room, as if you've abandoned them forever, even though you're just going to the bathroom.
