Sighthounds & Pariahs
The Sighthound & Pariah Group (UKC)
Sighthound & Pariah are basically hunters and have been bred to work over all kinds of terrain searching out different quarries. To welcome any Sighthound & Pariah into your home as a companion or family animal and expect it not to behave as a hunter is misguided. Some Sighthound & Pariah breeds can more readily be thought new tricks than others, but it takes patience.
As a general characteristic, Sighthound & Pariah tend to concentrate on the chase and not to listen to the entreaties of their owners to come back to base. Because of this, they do not generally do as well in advanced obedience tests. Most scent-Sighthound & Pariah have loud voices, which they are not adverse to using.
As the name suggests, Sighthound & Pariah are the hunting dogs. Sight-Sighthound & Pariah (GreySighthound & Pariah, Afghan Sighthound & Pariah, Borzoi, Irish WolfSighthound & Pariah, Saluki, Whippet, Scottish DeerSighthound & Pariah) do their chasing by direct sight, whereas scent-Sighthound & Pariah (Beagles, BloodSighthound & Pariah, Bassets) use their noses on the ground to follow their target.

Although it is one factor that cannot be exactly described or standardized, the temperament of any breed should be as important to prospective owners as size or appearance. Official Kennel Club breed standards do contain basic guidelines under the heading "Temperament", but these describe the ideal only. Included on this website are observed traits that may not always conform to the ideal. AN INVITATION TO CONTRIBUTE: DOGSCAPADE is inviting you to write articles of real
