Description
Dog Breed: Redbone Coonhound (short coat). Meet Copper! He is a 1 year old, Redbone Coonhound. This truly handsome boy is an indoor pet. Copper may need a bit more training, as he does still have accidents from time to time. He weighs 55 pounds, and is sweet, cuddly and playful. Copper is good with men, women, children and with other dogs. Copper's coloring is sort of red/chestnut/orange. Bad habits are chewing and fence jumping (he wants to try to catch rabbits, if anywhere near). You will need a tall, sturdy fence for when this guy is outdoors alone. Copper may need some heavy duty toys and lots of attention from any new owners. This very friendly boy needs a home! Amarillo SPCA, 11901 S. Coulter. 806-622-0555. Open Tues.-Sat 12 to 5 p.m.

Overview:
The Redbone Coonhound is a striking American breed, instantly recognizable by its beautiful, glossy red coat. Originating in the Southeastern United States in the late 18th century, they were developed for their exceptional scenting abilities and distinctive "bawling" bark, ideal for trailing and treeing raccoons and other small game. Physically, they are medium-sized, muscular hounds with long, pendulous ears and soulful brown eyes, exuding an air of quiet determination. Temperamentally, Redbones are known for being amiable, outgoing, and eager to please, making them wonderful companions. They are generally good with children and other dogs when properly socialized, though their strong prey drive means careful introductions to smaller pets are necessary. Due to their high energy levels and vocal nature, they are not typically suited for apartment living and thrive in homes with spacious yards and active families who can provide plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. While generally healthy, potential owners should be aware of common hound ailments such as hip and elbow dysplasia, and bloat. Overall, the Redbone Coonhound is a loyal, affectionate, and spirited breed, perfect for active families seeking a devoted canine companion.
