The Pharaoh Hound originated in ancient Egypt. It is thought to have been brought from Egypt by the Phoenicians when they settled on the Mediterranean islands of Malta and Gozo. The Pharaoh Hounds have existed there for over 2,000 years. In Malta they are bred for rabbit hunting and are the national dog of Malta.

When excited or happy, the Pharaoh Hound's nose and ears become flushed with a deep rose color, and his amber eyes grow in intensity. Having lived for centuries with civilized man, he is a natural companion. Height - 21 to 25 inches
