American English Coonhound
The American English Coonhound belongs to the same bloodline as the Black and Tan coonhound and has some physical characteristics in common. The American English Coonhound s coat is rough, short, and dense and is unique in the sense that it is a tricolor coat with blue mottling. The American English Coonhound has a heavily-muscled, deep-chested body with strong legs and well-arched feet and has long ears. The American English Coonhound s also has exceptional eyesight during the nighttime, which allows it to hunt better

American English Coonhound Skills
The American English Coonhound was bred by crossing French hounds, foxhounds, curs, and English coonhound breeds. The American English Coonhound ancestors, brought over to America, were considered too slow by American hunters to be brought along the trail, but when cross-bred with American hounds, their hunting abilities increased significantly. It was in 1945, however, that the Bluetick coonhound broke away entirely from the English hound breeds in order to develop a reputation for their breed on their own, even if they weren't as skilled in hunting and sport. Its skill is in cold hunting and is known for its endurance while on the trail.
