AI Summary

This bill creates a new section in the Kentucky Revised Statutes (KRS) Chapter 2 to officially designate the Treeing Walker Coonhound as the state dog of Kentucky. The Treeing Walker Coonhound is a breed of hunting dog known for its ability to track and "tree" raccoons and other game, meaning the dog chases the prey until it climbs a tree, allowing the hunter to locate it. By giving this breed official state dog status, the Kentucky legislature is recognizing the breed's historical significance and contribution to hunting culture in the state. The bill is straightforward, simply adding a single line of text to the state's legal code to formally acknowledge the Treeing Walker Coonhound's special status.
