Malka asked that I send you some casual pictures of Pharaoh Hounds, I have collected eight photos To be uploaded in three consecutive posts) that I hope help depict the breed's personality and traits. Main Information is: Kristen, Youngstown, Ohio Pharaoh Hounds breedia Name: Kristen and Baby Isis Photo 1: Pharaoh Hounds LOVE the sun, My girl will spend hours a day basking in the sun's rays. (Baby Isis). Photo 2: Contrary to popular belief, Pharaoh Hounds can tolerate the cold and snow. And often love to play in the white stuff. (Baby Isis). Photo 3: Most Pharaoh boys are really good fathers and often take over the role pf babysitting. This is Rameses and Baby Isis.

Pictures of Pharaoh Hounds (post 2 of 3): Main Information is: Kristen, Youngstown, Ohio Pharaoh Hounds breedia Name: Kristen and Baby Isis Photo 1: Pharaoh Hounds are known as the jesters of the dog world. They are always trying to make you smile. (Baby Isis) Photo 2: They are also some of the sweetest, softest, most sensitive breeds. (Baby Isis). Photo 3: Pharaoh Hounds are engineered for harsh desert climates. Their big ears work as radiators to more effectively cool the body. (Rameses). A white tail tip is also highly desired since a lot of hunting in their native country of Malta is done at dusk. Usually a matched pair of male and female dogs is used. When I watch the hunting behavior of both my kids I can see the reasoning behind this hunting 'brace'. My boy runs full tilt focusing on the next ridge, the next hols, the next valley in hopes of finding prey while my girl is more methodical using her keen sense of hearing and smell to zone in on prey under cover. Add these two together and you would have the perfect hunting machine.
Kris - I always knew how stunning Baby Isis and Rameses are, and I am delighted seeing them here on Breedia for everyone else to admire! I absolutely adore them!
