Bluetick Coonhounds are not at all ideal for people who live in homes without fences, apartments, or in closely-spaced neighborhoods. Because they are bred to be hunting dogs and to "give voice", they will chase and howl at even the slightest creature or perceived threat. Many Blueticks have ended up in rescues or in dog pounds because the owners did not know how loud they can be and were forced to give them up.

I actually have to disagree about the apartment rule. I just adopted a bluetick coonhound puppy. she is 7 months old and is weighing in at 40 pounds even. Yes, they do have "the voice" and yes they do love to follow the scents. But they can live in an apartment, mine certainly has no problem to do so. If you want to adopt a bluetick, and you live in an apartment find a dog park near you and take them there once a day. Mine loves the dog park and she has no problem living in an apartment. She sleeps all the time anyways.. just be aware that when they have to go outside, so do you with the dog on the leash.
