A Black and Tan Coonhound stands 23 to 27 in (58 to 69 cm) at the shoulder: males 25 to 27 in, females 23 to 25 in.
Height is measured at the withers, the top of the shoulders. The head and ears extend above that line. The American Kennel Club breed profile gives 25-27 inches (male), 23-25 inches (female).
