Description
Dog Breed: Black and Tan Coonhound. {s1550code1114/} {s1550code1111/} {s1550code1113/} Hi, I'm Earl! (My foster mom jokingly calls me Henry Earl the Hound) I'm a 2-year-old black and tan, and I'm looking for my people. My foster parents say I'm the perfect gentleman because I'm housebroken, recently neutered, and crate trained. I get along great with kids and other dogs, too. I'm also working hard on my "sit" and "stay"—I'll do anything for a treat! I'm an explorer at heart. My favorite things are sniffing everything outside and fetching sticks from the river! I'm also a great co-pilot and ride just fine in all types of vehicles. But after a long day of adventures, I love nothing more than finding the comfiest spot on the sofa for a serious snooze. Oh, and don't worry about my howl! I'm actually pretty quiet. I only use my voice when I really need to show you something cool. I'm ready to give you all my love!

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.
