Pariah dog

Pariah dogs are very original dogs that live near the people, without being encouraged or fed and without direct selection. The word pariah is borrowed from the Indian caste system, meaning outcasts, untouchables; in this case: dogs that live on the fringes of human society. They typically include a relatively stable type, but having regional differences. In some areas they have mixed with runaway dogs of other breeds.

Dissemination

Pariah dogs are spread over large parts of Africa, Asia, Australia ( Dingo ), New Guinea and southern Europe as well as North America ( South Carolina and Georgia) and South America ( Amazon region ).

As Schensihunde sometimes the pariah dogs of tropical Hackbaugürtels be called. The Basenji is the best known representative of this type.

Exterior Features

Pariah dogs usually have erect ears are short to short-haired and often have a marigold -like tail. They are almost always sand-colored or light brown. The rougher the weather, the longer the hair. In desert regions, the type is often wind -like dog.

Behavior

A hallmark is their wolf-like sounds. They usually do not bark, but they are - like wolves too - able. Your bark is short, monosyllabic and not as melodic as that of domestic dogs.

Breeds

Original pariah dogs have regional impacts, but no races in breeding senses. Some types, however, were processed for breeding and dog breeds. Dingoes are descendants of Asian pariah dogs.

Among the breeds, from pariah type include, inter alia:

Borneo dog
