Redbone Coonhound

The Redbone Coonhound is a sleek, all-American scenthound known for its rich red coat, big voice, and enthusiastic hunting drive. Originally developed in the American South for tracking raccoons and larger game, this breed combines stamina, courage, and a sociable nature at home. Redbones are affectionate with family but thrive best with active owners who can provide daily exercise and consistent training.
