Description
Hosanna Afghan Hounds are carefully bred to fit the Afghan Hound Breed Standard (American Version - Afghan Hound Club of America, 1948) as closely as possible. Among all the other details the breed standard calls for, we are especially striving to keep the correct 'square' outline, with backline being 'practically level from the shoulders to the loin'. We think having a 'correct' backline is essential to having the 'correct' breed outline. We also think 'Neck is of good length, strong and arched, running in a CURVE to the shoulders, which are long and sloping and well laid back' is extremely important. Also, beauty from the head to the tail is of the utmost importance. We see nothing in this breed standard that calls for anything but beauty and elegance. About the head, it says 'no trace of coarseness or plainness. A major goal of ours is to help PRESERVE this ancient breed, and our observation is that the description in the breed standard still fits photos of contemporary Afghan Hounds in their country of origin that we have seen. We invite you to print for yourself a copy of the Afghan Hound Breed Standard, and study these pictures of our dogs and pups in light of it. It can be found at: Afghan Hound at AKC.org . Here is a chart showing some of the outlines of this breed: Breed Outlines There are things that can't be seen in photos - feel free to call and ask any questions - (270)432-7272 - I love to talk about Afghan Hounds. Though there are no 'absolutely perfect'...
