for there sense of smell and tracking abiltys
You know that camouflage is important when hunting. And so coon hunters have developed that breed of dog having stealth, agility, profile and sense for coon hunting. Once upon a coon, they sound the alarm. Now find a picture of a coon and hopefully you won't be mistaking a coon for a coon dog. But don't be persuaded by me; many hound dogs can be viciously trained to hunt for coons.
A blood hound is the best hunting dog because it has a great nose & it also runs fast.

From googling his picture, he just looks like a generic hound dog mix. Coon hound, mayhaps? Either way, I don't think he's really meant to be a specific breed. Just a hound dog.
A hound is a hunting dog. If you "hound" someone, you can also be said to "dog" them -- it means you hunt them tirelessly, following after them and usually bothering them.
