With a pleading expression accompanied by a confident air, the redbone coonhound is a courageous breed. Known for being a versatile hunter of tremendous skill, they are used on varous game, from raccoon to bear to mountain lion. Dating back before the Civil War, breeders and hunters strove to have a hound that could not only perform in the woods, but also have a strikingly beautiful look. A solid red coat, a personality to please and a natural tracking and treeing ability sets the redbone coonhound apart from other breeds.
