Where are Redtick Coonhounds from?

Redtick Coonhounds are from the United States. The breed was developed by early American hunters in search of a dog with stamina and excellent tracking abilities in present-day Virginia, Tennessee, and Kentucky. Early American settlers brought various types of hounds from Europe, including English Coonhounds, which were then selectively bred with other local hounds to create dogs suited to American hunting conditions — and the Redtick Coonhound was born.
