The history of the Ibizan Hound can be traced back to 3400 BC. In glorious ancient Egypt, this royal hunting dog was owned only by Pharaohs and participated in their hunting activities. Many ancient relics excavated from Pharaohs’ tombs further confirm the long history of this dog.
However, the mummy of the ruler of the First Dynasty of Egypt (3100–2700 BC) was buried in a tomb near Saqqara. During the archaeological excavation of the tomb, a pottery plate inscribed with an Ibizan Hound was discovered.
This dog is essentially the same as the standing dog, but it has distinct characteristics, making it difficult to confuse. They have a gentle temperament and strong disease resistance. The body is robust and resilient.
The formation of the American Ibizan Hound Club plays an extremely important role in ensuring the genetic excellence of the breed and attracting excellent Ibizan breeds.
The Ibizan Hound was registered in the AKC Good Breed Dog registry on October 1, 1978, and became a recognized show dog on January 1, 1979.
