Presenting the ultimate in beauty and grace, the Afghan Hound is truly a king among dogs. A true aristocrat, the stylish Afghan is an elegant, strong, dignified dog combining great speed and power. Named after its home area, the Afghan was originally bred for hunting or chasing down game. Also equipped with a unique long coat for protection in the extreme climates of the Afghani region.  It wasn't until the late 19th century that the Afghan was introduced into the western world.
