Description: This dog is indigenous to the North of India, is as hard as nails in con- stitution, somewhat rough and rugged in outlook, but a well-built, sym- metrical dog, possessed of consider- able speed. His expression should be very' keen and wicked, especially when roused. Head is long and flat, well filled up before the eyes, with a strong punishing jaw. The ears lay flat on the cheeks and are filbert shaped. His small eye is close set, and the color varies to the shade of the dog's coat._ The body is moder- ately long and falls away a good deal to the set-on of the tail, which also is set on low and carried with an upward sweep. His coat is very thick and dense and close lying, soft to the touch but not silky.
