Treeing Walker Coonhound Breed Profile
Breed Overview
The Treeing Walker Coonhound, often called the “Walker,” is a sleek, athletic scent hound developed in the United States from English Foxhounds. Bred primarily for treeing raccoons, this breed is known for its speed, endurance, and keen sense of smell. They are intelligent, alert, and highly active dogs that thrive in homes where they can get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation.
Despite their hunting heritage, Treeing Walker Coonhounds can be affectionate family dogs, especially when properly socialized. They enjoy companionship, are generally good with children, and do best with owners who understand their energetic and independent nature.
Size Category and Why Growth Tracking Matters
Treeing Walker Coonhounds fall into the medium to large breed category. Adult males typically weigh 55–75 lbs, while females usually weigh 50–65 lbs. Because of their athletic build and active lifestyle, proper growth monitoring is important to ensure they maintain lean muscle rather than excess weight. Tracking growth also helps identify potential developmental concerns, especially related to bones and joints during their rapid growth phases.

How Much Bigger Will My Treeing Walker Coonhound Puppy Get?
Treeing Walker Coonhounds grow rapidly during the first year of life.
- Most puppies reach 50% of their adult weight by 4–5 months.
- By 6 months, they are typically 70–75% of adult weight.
- They generally reach full adult size between 12 and 15 months, though some may continue to gain muscle and fill out until about 18 months.
Rule of thumb: To estimate adult size, double your puppy’s weight at 16 weeks. For example, a 25-pound puppy at 4 months will likely weigh around 50 pounds as an adult.

Treeing Walker Coonhound Growth Tips
Nutrition
- Feed a high-quality large-breed puppy formula to support healthy bone and joint development.
- Puppies 8–12 weeks: 3–4 meals daily
- Puppies 3–6 months: 3 meals daily
- Puppies 6–12 months: 2 meals daily
- At 12 months, transition to adult large-breed dog food.

Exercise
Treeing Walker Coonhounds are high-energy dogs, but young puppies need age-appropriate activity.

- Avoid high-impact exercise like long runs or repetitive jumping until after 12–15 months.

- Ear infections – their floppy ears require regular cleaning.
