The Treeing Tennessee Brindle is a medium-sized American dog with an athletic body, drooping ears and a short coat. Brindling is its most distinctive feature, covering much of the body or appearing against predominantly black colouring. Strong legs and a deep chest suit a fast, enduring dog. It retains free movement in dense woodland.
The breed's founders gathered brindle Cur-type dogs from various United States regions, particularly around the Appalachians and Ozarks. They chiefly selected the ability to find game taking refuge in trees and signal its position. The word 'treeing' describes this speciality. The exact ancestry of all local lines was not recorded; the modern breed was established from working dogs valued by hunters.
It is usually friendly towards people and comfortable among other dogs. It quickly responds to scent and movement and can search very persistently. It makes clear use of its voice, especially on finding its quarry. Cooperation with people combines with initiative: rather than expecting constant directional guidance, it actively explores independently.
