It is a medium-sized, powerful and agile hunting dog. Its work—following scent, treeing game and alerting the hunter—is reflected in the breed name. The UKC height range is 18–24 inches for males and 16–22 inches for females, with weight proportionate to height.
[1]A short, smooth brindle coat
The coat is short, dense and smooth. The standard lists brindle, or black with brindle trim. A small amount of white on the breast or feet is allowed. The UKC also describes open trailing and a change of voice at the tree.
