The Afghan Hound is elegance personified. This unique, ancient breed has an appearance quite unlike any other: dramatic silky coat, exotic face, and thin, fashion-model build.

Hailing from Afghanistan, where the original name for the breed was Tazi, the Afghan is thought to date back to the pre-Christian era and is considered one of oldest breeds.
