02 Pharaoh Hound Present Day History
The AKC records for the Pharaoh from the time they were recognized
through the end of 1994, show, there have been a total of 233 litters
with 1,211 dogs individually registered with the AKC. 465 of these
dogs have attained their AKC Championship with an additional 53 titles
having been awarded in Obedience. AKC Lure Coursing Titles have been
given to 9 Field Champions.
There are about 1,200 to 1,500 Pharaoh Hounds alive and well in the
U.S. today. These figures are based on the fact that not all new
owners of this wonderful breed choose to register their hounds, &
therefore the figure of 1,211 registered may be misleading. Since
Pharaoh Hounds have a long life span of 12+ years or more, most of
those originally registered in 1984 are still with us.
