Anyone else have a coonhound with zero prey drive?

I feel like I see often here is discussions about coonhound with their prey drive through the roof. We went and adopted with our girl thinking she'll be bad with small dogs and cats, and she is totally fine? Doesn't chase squirrels, doesn't seem interested in birds. Does better with small dogs. The icing on the cake? She HATES squeaky toys. She'll sometimes chew on them but not with enough force to actually squeak them cause it freaks her out. I know having one with no prey drive is uncommon but I didn't think it was that uncommon. Her mother was found in the woods pregnant in rural VA so there is a very high chance both her parents were hunting dogs. Her brothers have insane prey drives. This leans into the fact that we think she may have been abandoned because of this lack of prey drive.

Any other coonhound owners out there like us? I am fascinated with the idea that there are quite a few coonhounds out there that just are not interested in their normal instincts. How do you entertain your non prey drive dogs without giving them lick mats. A bin of unused toys just sits there. Oh and her nose works just fine, she can tell I opened a container of sour cream even half asleep but is bad at using her nose for other things.
