Make sure the dog is good on the tree, if you get one that is slick or unsure of itself it's just going to reinforce more bad habits.
Remember, you want the hound to think it's only job is to track and tree, letting them get into a coon fight every now and then is just a perk for them, not their end goal. You can help drive that home by tying them back before you shoot the coon, and praising them once it's dead on the ground.
