Description
Dog Breed: Treeing Walker Coonhound. Howdy! I'm Maven and I am 1 years old! I am a sweet and friendly girl that loves to sit for snacks! I am playful and love, love, love to run and sniff my surroundings! I love treats and attention so much that if you give me both at the same time, my brain malfunctions and I hold the treat in my mouth until you stop petting me... I have my quirks! Anyway, I'm goofy and lovable and ready for a home of my own, so what are you waiting for? I was surrendered to the shelter with some of my hound family. Our owner had many awards and trophies in boar hunting with my ancestors, so I was bred to have a prey drive. Please remember this and do proper research before adopting me (and any dog!). Please come see me! I would love to meet you!Give the shelter a call at (574) 267-3008 or email them at infoawlwarsaw if you have any questions about me! If not, stop by the shelter at 1048 S 325 E in Pierceton, IN 46562 to look at me! No appointments necessary!

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.
