Pharaohs are smooth, aerodynamically traumatized wounds for high-speed pursuit on rocky terrain. Among their many distinct traits is a tight tan coat with matching leather on the rims of the nose, ears, and eyes; Savory amber eyes; A white-tipped tail; The ability to smile; And a unique way to blush when happy or excited (“Their face shines like a god,” a fan wrote about 3,000 years ago). These elegant visitors from antiquity witness the speed and graceful gait of all the courtyards descended from the wounds of the Bronze Age.
The history of the canine race may be very different without the Phoenician. These Lebanese merchants, who are from present-day Lebanon, traded goods in the Mediterranean 2,500 years ago. It is believed that the Phoenicians spread across the ancient world of Egypt, as far as Britain was in the west. The prevailing theory suggests that the Phoenicians introduced the Pharaohs to Malta, where they were used as rabbit hunters. In 1979, Pharaoh was named the national base of Malta.
The appearance of the Pharaoh Hound is very attractive, both graceful and elegant. Overall, the breed is fairly primitive looking; It looks very similar to a typical type of dog from long ago. The Pharaoh Hound is a medium-sized breed with males typically standing between 22 to 25 inches tall and females usually standing between 21 and 24 inches tall. This breed is very lean and most weigh between 40 and 60 pounds. The Pharaoh Hound is a natural and capable athletic and should look very fit and muscular. Although not as minor as most sightings, the build of the Pharaoh Hound is reminiscent of them. This breed is slightly longer than its length, but the slender legs of many members of the breed seem to be the opposite. The Pharaoh Hound’s appearance is as natural as it is likely to be found in a dog, and none of its characteristics should appear exaggerated in any way. This dog’s long tail is very thick at the base, but tapers down to a pointed tip. The tail is carried down, with a large curve about two-thirds of its length from the base.
A Pharaoh Hound’s head sits at the end of a long and narrow neck. The head looks sophisticated with very prominent features. The shape of the head is flattened, wedge-shaped and narrow. The muzzle of this breed blends very easily with the rest of the head, adding to its wedge-shaped appearance. The muzzle of this breed is very long, preferably longer than the head. Because the head of this breed is so narrow, the muzzle is often the same width. At the end of the muzzle there is a nose which should be similar in color to a dog’s coat. The eyes of the Pharaoh Hound are oval shaped and set moderately in the head. This breed is often born with blue eyes, which turn amber or deep yellow as the dog ages. Perhaps the most noticeable facial feature of this breed is its ears. These ears are quite large, especially in terms of width, and stand upright. These ears are very mobile and expressive. The overall expression of the Pharaoh Hound is curious and intelligent. The Pharaoh Hound is one of the few dog breeds that is “”blush””. When these dogs are excited their noses and ears often turn a bright pink color.
The coat of this breed is short and shiny. The coat texture of each individual Pharaoh Hound varies from fairly soft to slightly harsh. The Pharaoh Hound is found in two coat patterns: solid red and red with white markings. This breed is found in many shades of red, from light tan to dark chestnut. Different kennel clubs have different restrictions and preferences on shade, but most are fairly broad. Likewise, almost every kennel club allows and supports various white markings. Most prefer dogs with strongly white tail tips and solid white markings rather than flaking. Also, most people prefer not to have white on the dog’s back or sides. The most commonly found markings include a star on the chest, patches on the toes, and a thin white patch on the center of the face.
The gestation period in lasts for 60-64 days The primary period of the reproductive cycle of the female is called Proestrus and goes on for around 9 days. During this time the females begin to draw in males. The subsequent part is the Estrus when the bitch is receptive to the male. It goes on for around 3 to 11 days. The third part is the Diestrus. Usually, it happens around day 14. In this period the bitch’s discharge changes for distinctive red and reaching its end. The vulva gets back to average, and she will no longer allow mating. The fourth part called the Anestrus. The time span between heat periods ordinarily keeps going around a half year. The litter size ranges between 6 to 8 puppies at a time’
Pharaoh Hounds do not need a lot of grooming. Daily light brushing or a heavy weekly brushing will be given along with the necessary bath. Particular attention should be paid to keeping the ears clean, and the nails trimmed to a minimum that dogs do not make a tapping sound when they walk on the floor. The tooth should be cleaned at home regularly, but should also be checked by your veterinarian when the dog has an annual checkup. Pharaohs generally do not have a “dog smell”, so if an odor is present, examine it to find out the reason.
Pharaoh looks forward to learning and is eager to please. However, he has a problem with teaching to come when he is lead off in an open area. It has been proven time and again that most Pharaohs, no matter how obedient or well trained, will not come when they suddenly find themselves in an independent position. They would flee, be happy to hunt – with some dogs eventually caught after several days, but others, sadly, were killed in traffic, or gone forever.
Anyone considering owning a Pharaoh should be aware that a regular exercise program is needed to keep the breed happy and in good condition. If you are lucky enough to be a “self-runner”, then let him run 15 to 20 minutes twice a day. For this, a six feet high fenced area with a minimum height of 50 feet to about 50 feet is required. If this is not possible, or if he is not a natural “runner”, be prepared to walk your Pharaoh for at least 20 minutes a day. No amount of training should be trusted to overcome the strong hunting instinct of the Pharaoh. He should never be allowed to do off-lead exercises in unintentional territory.
The Pharaoh Hound should perform well on high quality dog food, whether it is commercially manufactured or prepared with the supervision and approval of your veterinarian. Any diet should be appropriate for the age of the dog (puppy, adult or senior). Some dogs are at risk of being overweight, so watch your dog’s calorie consumption and weight level. Treatment training can be an important aid, but giving too much can lead to obesity. Know which human foods are safe for dogs, and which are not. If you have any concerns about your dog’s weight or diet, check with your vet. Clean, fresh water must be available at all times.
Dr. Stephen Sipperly, chairman of the Pharaoh Hound Club of America Health Committee, notes that requirements for CHIC certification for a pharaoh hound include screening for hip and elbow dysplasia, patella laxation, and eye disorders, and he says that most The results are general for all those screenings. The most common cancers in the breed are hemangiosarcoma, and mast cell tumors and breast cancers, although some of these conditions are of age and suffering from all dogs, regardless of breed and mix. Dr. Sipperly says, “”Looking at the results, I can say with confidence that the Pharaoh Hound does not suffer from any significant disorders.
