I'm Jennifer H., the breeder behind Holcomb's Hounds located in Centerville, PA. From whelping to weaning, my home is a haven of attentive care: balanced, AAFCO-approved nutrition tailored to prevent bloat (raised bowls and measured portions of 2½-3 cups daily), early vet checkups, and deworming protocols that keep puppies thriving. I prioritize socialization from day one.
Q. & A. with Jennifer
Why did you start breeding?
I got a beautiful Gascon female and had to get a Tennessee bluetick so I got a male. My first litter was actually an accident but after everyone that got a pup loved them so much and raved about them, I discovered I have something really special
What makes your program special?
My pups can be serious hunters or just a buddy for the family. They are smart enough to be trained to do anything. Search and rescue, hunters, guard dogs, etc
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Bluetick Coonhound puppies are blue ticked and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

About Squirrel
Squirrel is from the hills of Tennessee!! His granddaddy is the Tennessee Titans mascot. He is super intelligent, (there isn't a door he hasn't figured out how to open) He has great natural genetics to hunt anything and everything. He's treed coons, cats, squirrels, chipmunks and wont let a bird land in the yard if I'm present. He's also proven to be a excellent guard dog, especially to kids. He also has the sweetest soft side, he loves to give hugs. Also his focus when tracking is unbreakable. He also has the voice that carries for miles! I've had neighbors point that out and I live in the country.
Onyx, mom
Bluetick Coonhound
About Onyx
Onyx is a calm, sweet girl. She is an excellent cold tracker, full of determination and will. She also loves to just cruel up and snuggle. Super friendly, but will keep her distance if unwelcome. Very smart and has a low long drawn out voice that carries for miles.
