About the Afghan Hound

This elegant sighthound hails from Afghanistan, where it was developed, possibly from Salukis, to hunt deer, gazelle, and smaller game like hare and fox across varied terrains. Its long limbs, powerful jaw, and remarkable speed made it perfectly suited for its original role, while its glamorous coat offered protection in the cold, mountainous regions. The Afghan Hound's graceful movement and striking appearance truly set it apart.
