The Black and Tan Coonhound is an exceptional training partner for endeavors that channel that exceptional nose such as tracking or Search and Rescue.  Even so, training areas like agility and obedience that might rely less on that nose can become a challenge as the trainer seeks to find something as motivating to the dog as all the delightful information they get from sniffing!  Even so, with lots of fun training based on games, attention, treats and/or toys (whatever the dog prefers) exceptional results can be achieved.  Discinplinary methods (such as choke collars, shock collars, etc.) are usually met with dismal failure as the dog will simply "tune out" once their tolerance is reached and spend every moment they can sniffing the ground rather than paying attention to you.  Additionally the damage created by such training methods will result in anxiety and tension that will likely find an outlet in other ways.
