Canary Islands Hound

This dog of Egyptian origin was probably brought to the Canary Islands by the Phoenicians, the Greeks, the Carthaginians, and the Egyptians themselves. The Canary Warren Hound is one of the oldest breeds its remains have been found in the tombs of the pharaohs. The Canary Warren Hound belongs to FCI Group 5 Section 7 (Primitive type hunting dogs). He is used on rabbit.
Long-backed and slender, he is extremely hardy, bold, and energetic. He moves at an extended, very light-footed trot. He is eager, fast, and active. He is a pleasant, peaceful pet but not a watchdog. His marvelous nose makes him an excellent tracker.
