Description
Dog Breed: Treeing Walker Coonhound (short coat). Hi, I’m Honey! I’m a deeply loving, highly sensitive, and eager-to-please companion. I’m very food-driven which makes positive reinforcement training highly effective. I’m intelligent and ready to bond closely with my new people. I love to cuddle and sprawl on top of you like a weighted blanket. I’m looking for a structured, understanding home. I deserve a guardian who respects my need for space and can provide a consistent, predictable environment. If you are interested in meeting Honey, please download the Adoption Questionnaire, fill it out and email it back to us at infofarescue or fax (310) 362-0321. You can also meet this and/or other available dogs at our weekend adoptions. [Honey is 1.5 years old and weighs 55 lbs.] (2510)

A.K.A.: Walker Coonhound, Treeing Walker, Walker, Walkers, Coonhound, Kentucky Coonhound, Tennessee Lead Coonhound
Overview:
The Treeing Walker Coonhound, a breed originating in the American South, was meticulously developed for its exceptional ability to track and "tree" raccoons and other small game. Physically, they are athletic and elegant, showcasing a smooth, short coat typically in tri-color (black, white, and tan) or bi-color patterns, along with a distinctive long tail and expressive, often pleading, brown eyes. Weighing between 50-70 pounds, their lean musculature allows for impressive endurance. Temperamentally, they are known for being intelligent, friendly, and affectionate, making them wonderful companions. However, their strong prey drive and high energy levels mean they thrive in active homes with securely fenced yards; apartment living is generally not recommended due to their need for extensive exercise and a tendency to bay. While generally a healthy breed, potential owners should be aware of possible issues like hip and elbow dysplasia, as well as bloat. Their loving nature makes them suitable for active families willing to provide ample physical and mental stimulation.
