埃及狗:关于法老猎犬的一切
William Santos

对于那些喜欢狗的人来说,没有什么比一个平静、温顺、有感情的品种更好了,而且,它与孩子和其他动物相处得非常好。 我们说的是埃及狗,法老猎犬。

尽管人类曾试图将这些狗训练成猎人,但它们温顺和不太听话的行为使事情变得很困难。 但是,如今它们是优秀而可爱的宠物。 因此,让我们来谈谈这个品种,它是世界上最稀有和最古老的品种之一。

埃及狗的起源是什么?

法老王猎犬是历史上最古老的驯化品种之一,其血统最早可追溯到公元前3000年左右!也就是说,真的是很久远了。 甚至有人认为,这些狗是古埃及时期法老墓墙上的象形文字的灵感来源。

几个世纪以来,人类一直认为法老王犬已经灭绝,直到它们在马耳他群岛上被重新发现,该群岛位于欧洲南部。 由于该地与世隔绝,该品种有可能繁殖了数千年,没有与其他类型的狗混合。

据认为,法老猎犬曾经被腓尼基人交易过,在基督诞生之前,所以它们被带到了马耳他群岛,在那里被饲养和训练来猎取兔子。 事实上,它们的原始名称是kelb-tal fenek,意思是 "兔子狗"。

在20世纪50年代中期和60年代,人类开始将这一犬种运送到英国和美国,他们在那里做出了巨大的努力,以确保这些狗能够适应。 尽管如此,在世界大部分地区还是很难找到法老王猎犬,标本非常少。

法老王猎犬的身体特征

一般来说,该犬种的外观经常与灰狗相提并论。 埃及幼犬的耳朵大而直立,其最突出的特点之一是腿长而细,尾巴长,身体窄而拱。 这种狗的整个结构表明它是一个优秀的跑步者,可以达到很高的速度。

这种狗的被毛很短,质地细而硬,最主要的颜色是深浅不一的棕色。 尽管如此,有些狗可能会在身体上出现一些白毛,如在爪子、尾巴、胸部和面部。

而一个有趣的好奇心是,除了人类之外,埃及狗是唯一能够脸红的哺乳动物。 当它遇到感到羞耻或快乐的情况时,它的鼻子和耳朵会变成强烈而醒目的粉红色。

法老王猎犬的性情是怎样的?

友好、平静和善于交际:这就是埃及犬。 它是一种非常活跃和爱玩的动物,对其监护人非常忠诚、尊重和服从。 此外,这种犬种能很好地适应孩子的存在,对小家伙相当有耐心和亲和力。

它们非常活跃,觉得需要消耗能量,所以有必要用散步和跑步以及玩具来娱乐它们。 对埃及幼犬来说,最推荐的是为它提供一个有大量户外空间的家庭,它可以根据需要尽情地跑。

虽然它们行动迅速、忠诚、听话,但并不是好的护卫犬或猎犬。 这是由于这种犬种没有太多的设施来学习和记忆新的命令。 而且,尽管它是一种非常独立的狗,但重要的是不要整天让它独自一人,因为它喜欢有家人陪伴。
