- All Sighthounds list from A to Z. Sighthound is a type of a dog, that hunts by sight rather than scent. Because they use sight, all the sighthounds have to be very fast dogs

Sighthounds are the fastest dogs in the world and the famous Greyhound is part of this group. Because they need to be fast, they have lean bodies, flexible back and long legs.
Sighthounds are very old and ancient group of dogs. For example Saluki or Sloughi are very old breeds.
I mention some questionable breeds into the video. Rhodesian Ridgeback, Thai Ridgeback and Basenji are sighthounds based on some major kennel clubs while some other kennel clubs put them into different group. But since there is always at least one major kennel club (FCI or AKC) that mark them as sighthounds i decide to include all three into this video.

The sight hounds are so different from other dogs, particularly the ever snuffling Beagles. I never realized how the height of the dog ties into its ability to hunt by sight. They appear to be gentle animals and love to see them run. Thank you for the vid, fun to see them all.
Thanks for watching!
Salukis are beautiful... :)
Absolutely! 👍
SO PUMPED FOR ARTEMIS FOWL omg. Thanks for the great work!
The silken windhound is my favorite ❤❤❤
They look so noble
oh! I actually own one, her name is Mia! Amazing dog, she's currently very old (16) but I'm incredibly lucky to have been able to experience life with such an incredible animal.
Has it been accepted as a breed yet?
Loved the vid and learned something new! As someone owned by two whippets I was looking forward to the fine example that would be used to demonstrate the breed... um... an utterly gorgeous heart melting puppy was awesome, but they only look like that for such short time! And who can resist a whippet puppy??? A more grown up example would have been in keeping with the rest of the video.
For the record, Saluki's, Afghans and Silken Windhounds are utterly gorgeous.
Glad you enjoyed it!
thanks for this, I had no idea there were so many! Also... LOL at "LongDog" XD
Glad you enjoyed!
I started watching skeptically, thinking "I wonder if Mudhol Hound will be here?" (Not specifically that; substitute "Magyar Agar" or "Chart Polski" if you like). But you had three I've never heard of. Very impressive.
Thanks a lot! It is possible that i still miss few of the very very rare local sighthounds, but i think i showed most of them :)
@@Rocadogook up Rajapalayam dog
You forgot the Windsprite (formally Longhaired Whippet)
I wanna Windsprite!!!
Well basically he didn't because that's just a long haired whippet
adding lurcher is a bit confusing...not so much a breed as a cross between breeds.
I am aware, that it is not a pure breed, but i think it is one of the types of the sighthounds, so i felt i should put them into "All Sighthounds" video. But i get your point.
@@Rocadog - thanks for reply
@@7875saltsprings1 No problem, i am trying to reply to every meaningful comment. BTW the Longdog is the same thing as a lurcher - not a breed but type of a dog.
Please someone helps-me. I have a project to make a guardian Dog. and a want to insert some hound who can already have drive of hunting and protecting I thinking in Azawakh + Doberman.
Or Azawakh + Doberdane.
Have best breed rustic than Azawakh?
@@Rocadog Lurcher is a cross between a sighthound and non-sighthound breed. A longdog is a cross between two sighthounds. They are a bit different.
The Afghan Hound is my 1st choice favorite, Saluki is my 2nd choice. ❤
👍👍
Someone saw my Saluki and said that he looked like his wife's Afghan when she had it shaved for the summer.

Chart Polski has a protecting instinct.
My favourite is Saluki ♥
Very ancient breed, i love them
My dream dog... Ive had a Greyhound a lurcher with saluki in it and a whippet.
Ill get one one day or perhaps 2 lol
Same
Strange looking mini horses here
😂😂
Rhodesian Ridgeback, Basenji, Thai Ridgeback. For some kennel clubs they are sighthounds but some other kennel clubs put them into different category. I put them into this video, because always, at least one major kennel club (AKC or FCI) have them in Sighthound group. What do you think? Are these dogs really sighthounds or not?

Ridgebacks are not Sighthounds at all. Basenji is somehow between Spitz and Sighthound.
@@gilregev4823 i have the same opinion as you do. I put them into the list, because AKC or FCI (not sure which one now) have Ridgebacks in sighthound category.. And i found that it is based on a fact, that some of the foundation stock used by Cornelius Van Rooyen during the creation of the breed was sighthound stock. Support for this theory has grown in areas (most notably in the United States) where ridgebacks have been allowed to compete with sighthounds in lure-coursing field trials. The theory's detractors contend that success in lure coursing trials does not in and of itself make a dog a true sighthound, and further bolster their contention by pointing out that ridgebacks are very poor performers when allowed to run in unofficial open field courses where they typically cannot keep up with the true sighthounds. Even so, no one can argue that ridgebacks have not been successful at lure coursing events. In fact ridgebacks have been very competitive in almost every lure coursing venue in which they have been allowed to compete. Proponents of this theory will often further defend it with a (debated) claim that while ridgebacks are versatile and use all their senses, their first and strongest inclination is to find game by sight-which itself is considered normal for dogs of any type, when the game is actually in sight
please compare between standard Schnauzer and Terriers of the same height
They dont look like sighthounds, basenji maybe
@@gilregev4823 I can try doing some kind of comparsion like that. I have a lot of videos scheduled right now, so it might take some time
Add Chippiparai ( kanni), Mudhol Hound ( Caravan Hound), Sarail Hound, Rampur Hound
Thanks for adding mudhol
Also thanks for Rampur
@@Rocadog bro make a vedio on Sarail Hound, most underrated dog, if you want information check my channel, and send me your social media link, or e-mail, will send you info
@@Rocadog already watched
I have to admit, that i never heard anything about the Sarail hound, my email is rocadog@seznam.cz and i will check your channel on Monday :)
Borzoi are my favourite horse
Saluki and the silkens are my favorites
👍👍
I Love greyhound

all the dogs look really elegant or slick and then there are Wolfhound and Deerhound looking like Gandalf 😂
👍👍
Sighthounds are the best 😍
Agree 👍
Rajapalayam is also a sight hound
Never knew ridgebacks was sight Hounds.
Learning something new at 42 thanks
They are one of the breeds that might or might not be included in the video. They are definitely different from the typical sighthounds, but for example the UKC (United Kennel Club) classify them as Sighthounds. But to this day people argue if they should be sighthounds, scenthounds, cur dogs, wagon hounds or even primite dogs.
They all are Saluki Mix hahah because it's the oldest race on the list and all of them are taking its genetics...
Forgot the Chinese Saluki also known as the Xigou
What about the Galgo?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sighthound
I am not sure on 100% now, but isnt the Spanish Greyhound the same breed as the Galgo? Spanish Greyhound is in the video
Rocadog Yes I think you’re right, I only know them as Galgos :)
@@dikelly3360 they're not greyhounds there are differences so when people say Spanish greyhound it's misleading
Indian Maharashtra original hound is caravan hound..... normal dite & fit dog
No Chortai?
How about cirneco dell’etna???? Its regonised by fci and american kennel club
Where is Mongolian taiga ??? Mongolian taiga is ancient sighthound breed Chinese called Mongolian xiguo
What exactly is the difference between a greyhound and a Polish greyhound?
The English and Polish Greyhounds are probably not related, but we can not say that for sure, since the origin of the POlish Greyhound is little bit a mystery. There was a time, when it we believed, that Polish Greyhounds were developed from the Greyhound (English). But they look more like greyhounds from Asia and today, scientists believe, that Polish Greyhound is totally separate breed from English Greyhounds. I will maybe make a video comparsion between the English grey and Polish greyhound in the future :)

in fact, salukis and tazis are the same breed.
tazi is the Persian name of salukis .
we call salukis "tazi" because they rush to their pray(prey diving),and they can run extremely fast.
and it's good to know that feathered salukis are originally Iranian and the smooth ones are Egyptian
thanks for the content
What about the Cirneco dell’Etna ? We have one. He is the biggest love. ❤️ -beth Blume
Add Chippiparai (kanni) and Combai
I forgot about Chippiparai, but is Combai really a sighthound? It seems more like a terrier type of a dog, but i did not find any official information
@@Rocadog me also think so that combai looks similar to terrier, but used to known as boar Hound
Rajapalyam is also a sight hound
Cirneco dell’etna should be here. These dogs act and look like sighthounds. ☺️
As well as Pharaoh Hounds.
