Tejas Black & Tan Coonhounds

Tejas Black & Tan Coonhounds is a breeder of Black and tan coonhounds in Athens, TX, East Texas near Tyler. Jason Stewart has been breeding Black and tan coonhounds for over a decade with registration through national kennel clubs and emphasizes hip and eye health screening. Puppies are raised in a home environment where they receive daily socialization alongside family members and experience supervised outdoor time in a secure, wooded yard. Feeding, grooming and early obedience work follow breed-specific standards to nurture balanced temperaments.

Their breeding stock descends from hounds with records in local field trials and hunting excursions, reflecting a pack-oriented approach rooted in southern hunting traditions. Prospective owners note clear health records and a transparent seller philosophy, while each litter is raised with attention to the breed’s distinctive vocal and tracking instincts. Litters are limited to two per year to ensure personalized attention for each puppy, and Jason offers ongoing guidance as dogs settle into new homes.
