I have only had black and tan coonhounds for twenty years and my present wonderful dog has to be put down this week. I live on the Washington coast and have had no luck in finding a very young dog or pup of the breed in the northwest states. I am addicted to this breed and was wondering if anyone knows of a suitable breeder or dog in your area. I have no problem driving a thousand miles ( literally ) to purchase one. Odd request I know but I am running out of ideas.

So sorry to hear you have to put your dog down this week Frank. :sad5:
I will keep a look out to see if anyone has coon hounds available.
-
Not sure if any of these are of interest to you or not.

Get either a Plott or a Catahoula Leopard. They r versatile and very tough smart dogs!
-
Thanks folks. I'm sure the related hounds are wonderful also but black and tans have gotten under my skin.This dog laid next to my bed for months when I was paralyzed below the waist repaying the intensive care it got from me when my son rescued it when it was near death from starvation. It has been an interesting ride for both of us.

I love those long eared black & tan dogs.
The VERY VERY VERY long eared coon hounds

feeling the waters, lets see what my former hound hunters association has to offer.
I have been on every mountain in Washington chasing hounds, that were chasing game. :LOLOL:

My uncle used to breed some of the best Black & tans and walkers in Washington state.
I mean, top hunting award winning dogs.
-
Did I read a young walker is available ? Thanks for looking.

Ya.

Thanks again. I realized that I definitely need a pup as my left hand is hardly working and I need to train a young dog to voice commands and not deal with a strong untrained hound.Training an older hound is a job for someone more healthy as they can be a handful for quite a while.

Thanks very much for your efforts. I am determined to find either a black and tan pup or a bloodhound pup. Dogs keep me young.

awwww, just recently lost my schnauzer to senior lady pulling out of the cemetery. hubby cried for a week. she stopped but i waved her off just as bishop died in my arms. god love them both.
-
At least your dog did not suffer long.They can leave a big hole in one's life . Sad story.
-
Cute pup, I favor curs too. A plott hound was originally crossed black and tan with black mouth cur. I had one years ago, I now have a black mouth and a catahoula leopard cur and they are the best dogs I've ever had. I don't think you can really go wrong with any type of cur..... as long as you get a young one and establish yourself as the pack leader.

It is a long trip, but the Abels used have the best Black and Tans. There are also a number of good bloodlines for Treeing Walker (Finley River/ Mungo Creek etc)
