Do Bluetick Coonhounds bark a lot?

Yes, Bluetick Coonhounds tend to bark a lot. They have a distinctive “baying” bark that is sometimes called a “bawl” or a choppy howl. This baying can be quite loud and carries over long distances. Like most hounds,  Bluetick Coonhounds are fond of using their voice to communicate all manner of things, though they can be discouraged from barking as frequently with proper training and exercise.
