About the Canaan Dog
The Canaan Dog, Israel's national breed, traces its lineage to the Middle Eastern Pariah Dog, gradually domesticated through selective breeding programmes from 1935. This breed comes in various colours and has been utilised by Israel's military for detecting mines and by the Red Cross. While few are seen in the show ring, its historical roles highlight its intelligence and adaptability.
