1905 the English Coonhound was first registered by UKC under the name of English fox & Coonhound. Back then they were used for fox hunting much more than they are today. The name reflected the similarity that the breed had to the American Foxhound and the English foxhound. While the Redbone and Black and Tan were given separate breed status, all other treeing coonhounds were called English after the turn of the century. These included both the Treeing Walker Coonhound and the Bluetick Coonhound. They were considered all the same breed. It was the variation in color which separated them. The heavily ticked dogs split off from the English and the Bluetick Coonhound was recognized as a separate breed in 1945. In 1946 the tricolored hounds separated into the breed called Treeing Walker Coonhounds. Though redticked dogs predominate, to this day there are still tri-colored and blueticked English hounds. The English Coonhound was bred to adapt to the rougher American climate and terrain. An English named "Bones," owned by Colonel Leon Robinson, won one of the first National Coonhound Championships. The breed is still used by practical hunters and competitive hound owners throughout the USA"
and ThankHeavens the other breed are following the Walker breed with "trying to improve the breed" with there breeding styles/research. Its in this months bloodlines book on certain English Stud Dogs.."trying to improve the breed" Good For Ya'll
let me know how that works out.
I hunt walkers out of Nailor, lipper, Skuna, Harry and there are no slick treein idiots here, that walk and breath and eat.
In the walker breed we dont tolerate it we cull it. We dont hug it we hunt it. And as one fella said "why on earth have an ugly dog to look at all year long" jmo.
I bet in 1905 they would have flipped out n lost there minds with what we have in the walker breed today.
