A non-standard American English Coonhound greeting can be a problem. Without training, these dogs can jump on guests and lick their faces. Their voice sounds much louder than that of some other brethren. Due to the closed door, such a formidable barking can greatly scare the intruder. Nevertheless, these animals will be bad watchmen, since they value communication with people very much and will not even be attacked by the “intruder”.
