Biewer Terrier Black and Tan Coonhound Mix History

All hybrid or designer dogs are tough to get a good read on as there isn’t much history to them. Breeding specific dogs like this has become common in the last twenty years or so even though I am sure that this mixed breed found it’s share of dogs to the shelter due to accidental breeding. We will take a closer look at the history of both parent breeds below. If you are looking at breeders for new, designer dogs please beware of Puppy Mills. These are places that mass produce puppies, specifically for profit and don’t care at all about the dogs. If you have a few minutes, please sign our petition to stop puppy mills.

Biewer Terrier History

The Biewer Terrier is a relatively new dog, first developed in Germany in 1984 when Werner and Gertrude Biewer, breeders of Yorkshire Terriers, crossed two dogs that each possessed a recessive particolor gene. Through selective breeding, the Biewers were able to continue these interesting offshoots. The specific difference between the Yorkshire and the Biewer is that the latter can have white as a coat color, whereas the AKC’s Yorkie standard allows for only four color combinations, none of which is white. The Biewer is not the first dog to descend from the Yorkshire. Others include the Paisley, the Skye, and the Maltese terriers. In a show ring at Wiesbaden, Germany, in 1988 Mr. Biewer first introduced his little tri-colored dogs, presenting them as Black and White Yorkshire Terriers. That particular club denied the Biewer as a separate breed, simply deeming them wrong-colored Yorkies. Biewer scoured the country for a registry that would accept his pretty little dogs as a separate breed. The ACH (Allgemeiner Club der Hundefreunde Deutschland e.V.) was the first club to do so. The breed standard written at that time was very brief, but it did specify accepted coloring of white, blue and gold.

Biewers caught on in the 1980s, with Mr. and Mrs. Biewer closely watching the progeny of other kennels for purity of the breed. Even with multiple kennels raising them, Biewers remained rare and as a result, costly.

Today, the Biewer Breed Club of America, Inc., claims to be the only breed club to breed Biewers only with other Biewers (i.e., not crossing them with Yorkies or other small terriers).



Black and Tan Coonhound History

“The Black and Tan,” as owners know her, is an American-bred scenthound whose initial purpose was to hunt of raccoons, bobcat, cougar, deer, elk, wild boar and even bear. Her job in colonial America was literally to put food on the table. Today she can live either as a working dog or as a family pet. The Black and Tan Coonhound has been bred to hunt game that is active primarily at night. When she picks up a scent, she may begin baying loudly to alert her handler. Each coonhound has her own distinctive baying voice that becomes instantly recognizable to her owner.
Today, she is the most popular of all the American coonhounds. The Black and Tan Coonhound is thought to to descend from three British dogs that were imported to America: the Bloodhound, the Talbot Hound, and the Foxhound, all brought to the states by wealthy landowners during the colonial period. In contrast, the Black and White Coonhound appears to be have been bred and perfected by working-class game hunters.

The Black and Tan Coonhound was recognized by the AKC in 1945. She continues to be used as a hunting dog, but is just as eager to participate in obedience and conformation activities as well as walking, jogging, agility and other forms of exercise. The Black and Tan requires a moderate amount of exercise (all dogs enjoy daily walks) and will be even-tempered and well-behaved as long as she gets that exercise.

All dogs have the potential to develop genetic health problems as all breeds are susceptible to some things more than others. However, the one positive thing about getting a puppy is that you can avoid this as much as possible. A breeder should absolutely offer a health guarantee on puppies. If they won’t do this, then look no more and don’t consider that breeder at all. A reputable breeder will be honest and open about health problems in the breed and the incidence with which they occur.
