The Battle of the Breeds is a competitive yet friendly rivalry between two specific breeds of coonhounds, Blueticks and Treeing Walkers. The annual event held in Ada, Oklahoma is cosponsored by the Bluetick Breeders & Coon Hunters Association and the Southwest Treeing Walker Association with the goal to foster fairness, self control, uncomplaining acceptance of defeat and, most importantly, - friendship. Last weekends battle saw yet another fantastic turnout.
