Black and Tan Coonhound fun facts

Fun Facts:

The Black and Tan Coonhound is known as a "trail and tree dog." Not only can he track his quarry along a track, but he can tree it as well.

The long, pendulous ears of the Black and Tan Coonhound aids in sweeping up scent from the trail.

The Black and Tan Coonhound uses its voice as it follows its nose on the scent trail of its quarry (sometimes opossum, raccoon, and more). Once it trees its prey, the sound of its bark changes to a particular type of baying sound to signal their owner.
