Hey, This blog provide information about different type of dogs breed. Today i discuss about dog that related to high society american dog.Silky tresses flowing, the Afghan Hound in America is a high society dog, at home with Rolls Royces, fashionable furs, cashmere sweaters, and Cartier jewelry. Far-removed from his birth in rugged Afghanistan, the dog brings a regal appearance and attitude to every space he occupies, every relationship he joins, and every job he does.

The Afghan is a study in contradictions. Beautiful in an aristocratic way, the breed is at heart and by heritage a sighthound, bound to course after cats in the yard, rabbits in the park or gazelles in his homeland. By appearance an ornament and by nature a guardian of the hearth, the Afghan's demeanor runs the gamut from jittery to dignified to merry.

There's no doubt that the Afghan is an ancient breed, a sighthound rising from the mists of time among the nomadic peoples of the Middle East. The mountain tribes that developed the breed to hunt large and small game were a conglomeration of people with a variety of customs and cultures. Much of the breed history has been lost as warlike factions led by the likes of Alexander the Great and Genghis Khan overran the country from time to time and Mohammedans labeled the animals as repugnant and impure. There is evidence that the dogs were of two basic types reflecting the terrain and climate in which they developed, but isolated tribes had their own varieties that differed by color and coat description.
