Are Treeing Walker Coonhounds good with kids?

Yes, Treeing Walker Coonhounds are often good with kids and are well-loved for being both playful and gentle with their human family. Still, these big and energetic pups may accidentally knock over a small child, so it’s important to teach them how to regulate their energy levels and movements around kids and to provide them with outlets for burning off their energy prior to sharing space with small children. 

Additionally, it’s best to teach children how to interact respectfully and gently with dogs to ensure the safety of the kids and pups alike and to facilitate a positive relationship. As with any breed, it is recommended that your child is always supervised when interacting with your dog to keep both the child and dog safe.
