Treeing Walker Coonhound for sale

We occasionally make crosses for ourselves to keep the Finley River bloodlines from becoming obsolete and than offer our extra pups for sale. Hunting dogs may be shipped if sold for hunting and/or to preserve the hunting lines.

If you refer to yourself as a hardcore hunter and believe hounds SHOULD NOT be messed with outside of hunting in the woods to hunt than please Look somewhere else. Our hounds turn out best when handled daily and want to please when they bond with owner. They make great all around dogs. I am not interested in selling to those who believe dogs must earn their right to live or die by bullet.

Due to Covid shipping has been limited for most of 2020 but airlines are starting to accept pets now but adding extra surcharge so shipping will be higher than before. Shipping cost will include crate, vet exam and rabies if pup is required to have one. Price is $460 as of 10-14 to ship to most anywhere as pups require a size 300 crate.

If your interested in a Treeing Walker or Black and tan please contact me if you would like to know more information on parents and want to be on the list for pup.

This is Lonnie Mears taken this July 2016 with many of his ACHA Trophys won in the early years when he was able to competition hunt. He has been breeding Finley River hounds for over 55 yrs

Our definition of a Finished dog.

1. Consistent... every time he opens his mouth you know he will be treed and have a coon. No starting a track and quitting.

2. Trees coon only, no off game. Knows to grab coon by the throat and can kill it.

3. Can use this dog to train pups with, if one runs off game he pays no attention he has only one thing on his mind, COON!!

4. Will hunt alone or in company.

5. Hunts the entire section, woods and creek then returns if no track hit within 20 -30 minutes.

We personally don't call a dog that runs out of hearing and has no comeback a coondog. We coonhunt to hear the race not chase dogs for miles from drop requiring tracking equipment to locate them. If they don't strike within 10 min of drop an tree within 20 in our hunting conditions something is wrong.
