Hi, I'm Tom. Me and my wife Valerie Bridegroom began breeding hounds many years ago. For the past 15 years we have concentrated on Bluetick Hounds not only because they have fewer health problems than most breeds, but they also have awesome personalities. We love these puppies and breeding them healthy for you is our main goal. For more pictures and info, check out the other sections of the website. We thank you for visiting and hope to see you real soon. 


What Sets Us Apart From The Competition?

We treat every puppy as if it were our own. With Backwoods Bluetick Kennels, you're only going to work with our family. We strive daily to produce the highest quality Blueticks possible. 



Why We Love Blueticks!

We have many years of experience hunting and breeding hounds. Out of all the hounds we have had and raised, Blueticks are our favorite. They are very intelligent and very devoted to their family. Blueticks are also great companion dogs. Because of their unique abilities, they also make great hunting dogs. Our dogs are family, 95% of pups we sell are pets and most customers keep them inside. We also find these beautiful animals great with kids. They will definitely let you know when someone is outside without being aggressive when people try to come in. We aren't fans of dogs that bite, It's another one of the many reasons I love Blueticks. Give one a try and if they don't work out for you, I will help you find a home any time.
