1 Cunninghams Aveline for Trailtracker (Imp Deu) Black and Tan Coonhound. Group 2. I fell for this bitch. Correct head planes. Deep flews and strong underjaw. Good dark eye. Ears set correctly and well back on skull and of good length. Good muscular nicely crested and without excess dewlap. Shoulders well laid back. Well-sprung. Nice croup slightly sloping to tail set. Moved so soundly. I predict a good career.
