Description
Dog Breed: Bluetick Coonhound. Meet Ruby A 3-year-old female blue tick coon hound mix; 71 lbs. She was spayed, is house trained, and crate trained where she sleeps at night. As a puppy, she spent a week boarding with a trainer and obeys several commands. She loves walks and riding in the car. She loves to be outdoors and can play fetch and retrieve. She loves to play the water game in the backyard running under a hose. She is current with immunizations, had regular vet visits, and gets monthly flea/tick and heartworm pills. She is good with people and a good companion. She is territorial about her food, so we prepare her bowl and leave her alone----she's then fine.

Overview:
The Bluetick Coonhound is a striking American breed, recognized for its distinctive deep blue, mottled coat and powerful build. Originating in the Southern United States from the French Grand Bleu de Gascogne hound, they were selectively bred for their exceptional tracking abilities, particularly for raccoons. Physically, they are strong, muscular dogs with long, droopy ears, a high-set tail, and an expressive gaze. Temperamentally, Blueticks are intelligent, friendly, and outgoing, possessing a strong prey drive and an endearing, almost mournful, baying bark. While generally good with children and other pets when properly socialized, their high energy levels and vocal nature make them less suitable for apartment living; a home with a secure, fenced yard is ideal. Prospective owners should be aware of potential health issues such as hip and elbow dysplasia, as well as bloat, emphasizing the importance of responsible breeding and regular veterinary care.
