That is not straightforwardly. We had a Black and Tan Coonhound, got her when she was 8 weeks old. We were told if we did not want her to be a hunting dog not to train her and she would be fine.

We have a black and tan coonhound who is about 18 months. He is a sweet-smelling dog but way too active for us. He was rescued in PA from a hunting reservation about a year ago we have tried to work with him but he is too much for us. We are looking for a new home for him and we are all sad but I would betrothed to find someone who really loves the breed and would give him everything he needs. What everyone has said about them is true they are great but have to have space to run and...
