The Black and Tan Coonhound was the first coonhound breed recognized by AKC in 1945; it had been recognized by the United Kennel Club earlier. The Black and Tan Coonhound, like the other coonhound breeds recognized by AKC, was developed in the United States from foxhounds and other European hounds, including the Bloodhound and Talbot Hound assumed to be in the Black and Tan’s history. Four of the other coonhounds – the Bluetick, the Redbone, the American English, and the Treeing Walker – were developed using primarily colonial foxhounds. The Plott evolved from the German Hanover hounds brought here by the Plott family who used them with other local breeds to produce their breed.
