Care
The Pharaoh Hound is an independent-minded, but very trainable, breed , American Curl when positive methods are used as it is sensitive and responds poorly to being physically punished. Some Pharaohs can be dominant by nature, but it depends on the individual animal.

Grooming Pharaohs is as easy as a quick rub with a hound glove or a damp cloth. They are clean dogs , Samoyed and shed very little and have no noticeable odor, even when wet.

History
For many years, this breed , Saarlooswolfhond was considered one of the oldest dog breeds. , Grooming your Cat Recent DNA analysis reveals, however, that this breed , Dogue de Bordeaux is actually a recent construction, bred to resemble an older form.[1] This DNA data now puts to rest the "Egyptian Myth" and proves the breed , Grooming your Cat did not originate from Egypt.

The breed , Volpino Italiano was brought to Britain in the 1920s and called the Pharaoh Hound because it resembles dogs , Gordon Setter featured on the walls of ancient Egyptian tombs.
