Description
Dog Breed: Black and Tan Coonhound. Jack is a 1 and 1/2 year old 59 lb Black and Tan Coonhound or mix. He was originally call Jack as a puppy when our Rescue adopted him. Then the family that adopted him named him Rico. He was returned after being the home since a young puppy, for recently nipping a kid. We don't really understand why that happened suddenly, if it was something the kid triggered or if was fear that made it happen. But we believe he still deserves a good home and for now, until he can be assessed by a great trainer we have, we would not suggest children in the home. He is fully vetted, housetrained, microchipped by us. He is good leash walking. If you are interested in meeting or adopting Jack please text Casey at 570-441-0083. We adopt to the general public but we also adopt to military veterans with adoption fee waived in order to provide our heroes with companion or emotional support dogs . Our other adoptable pets our posted on our website as well as the very brief (5 minutes) application form. rescuepetsservingvetsHe is very

Overview:
The Black and Tan Coonhound is a noble American breed, descended from crosses between Bloodhounds and Foxhounds, primarily developed to track raccoons and other nocturnal game. They are striking dogs, characterized by their sleek, glossy black coats with distinctive tan markings on their muzzle, chest, and legs. Physically, they are strong and athletic, with long, pendulous ears and a soulful expression, embodying the classic hound look. Temperamentally, they are known for being laid-back and affectionate with their families, yet possess an incredible prey drive and the classic "baying" hound voice when on a scent. While generally good with children and other pets, their strong sense of smell and desire to follow a trail means they require a securely fenced yard and consistent leash training. Due to their need for regular exercise and their vocal nature, they are generally not ideal for apartment living. Health-wise, they are a relatively robust breed, but can be prone to hip and elbow dysplasia, as well as ear infections due to their long ears. Prospective owners should be prepared for their independent spirit and their unwavering love for a good scent.
