Not only are Blueticks great hunting dogs, they are also great house dogs. They can adapt to where their living quarters are as long as they are able to get a lot of exercise daily.
The Buetick coonhound has a thickly mottled dark blue coat with black spots on the back, ears, and sides. On the cheeks and above the eyes they have tan markings, and dark red ticking on the chest, beneath the tail, on the feet, and lower legs. Shoulder to shoulder the average Bluetick is 21 to 27 inches and weighs up to 45 to 80 pound. They only live 12 to 14 years.
Bluetick grooming is pretty basic. With a rubber curry or hound mitt brush your coon hound weekly to keep its coat shiny and clean and bathe them as needed.
