The American English Coonhound

Renowned for speed and endurance, the American English Coonhound has a strong but agile body. This Coonhound is a balanced, powerful dog and they make great hunters. They are an alert and confident breed, but are also sociable with humans and other dogs. This breed makes excellent family pets, and is wonderful with children. Although, they do have a very loud bark.

The American English Coonhound is just the American Version of the English Coonhound, and is descended mainly from the English Foxhound. The name “Coonhound” is the shortened form of raccoon hound, as Coonhounds were often used to hunt raccoons.
