Dog Breeds - Afghan Hound |
Afghan hounds are often described as “aristocratic” due to their tall and slender stature. They are covered with a long, beautiful, silky coat which requires a lot of attention. The Afghan Hound is an ancient breed, in fact, cave drawings have been found in Afghanistan of this breed from over 4000 years ago! Afghan hounds were originally used to hunt a variety of animals including; goats, deer, and wolves. They are agile runners with a talent for sighting, tracking, and herding making them great hunters. Though generally healthy, this breed has a very low pain tolerance and finds coping with even minor injuries or health ailments very difficult. It is not recommended to keep an Afghan Hound in an apartment as they require free time daily to run in open spaces.

Pethealth has been fantastic. When Tasha was diagnosed with cancer, it gave me the ability to have her treated with much less concern over the finances. It allows for a much less selfish decision and allowed me to do the right thing for her without thinking about the money. Thank you for the quick way you handled it too. At a time of stress, you made that easy. She lived over a year after her diagnosis and almost all of that was with high life quality thanks to your help. Whoever says pet insurance is not worth it has a lot to learn about Pethealth and 24Petwatch Pet Insurance.
