The Redbone Coonhound is a breed of dog, which is widely used for hunting bear, raccoon, and cougar. Their agility allows them to be used for hunting from swamplands to mountains and some can be used as water dogs. This breed has been registered with the UKC since 1904.

The Redbone Coonhound has a lean, muscular, well proportioned build. The body type is typical to the coonhounds subgroup, with long straight legs, a wide barrel chest, and a head and tail that is held high and proud when hunting or showing. The Redbone’s face is often described as having a pleading expression, with sorrowful dark brown or hazel eyes and long, drooping ears. Their coat is short and smooth against the body, but coarse enough to provide protection to the skin while hunting through dense underbrush.

The sizes of the Redbone Coonhound are standard and medium sized for their breed. The males dogs should be 22-27 inches (56-68.5 cm) at the shoulder, and the females slightly shorter at 21-26 inches (53–66 cm). The weight is really proportional to the size, if the dog is really from the breed and bone structure of the individual dogs, with a preference towards leaner working dogs rather than heavier dogs. Basicly, weights will range from 45 to 70 lbs (20.5 to 31.75 kg). Males are typically larger and heavier boned than females and carry a deeper bay.
