Is the Greek Harehound your favourite dog breed? Greek Shepherd detailed video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gJ2miNeiqaval4U.html Kokoni detailed video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a5uWeb2Cz5OZqac.htmlsi=oRLpzxgdWqnfawKP

Yes! But I am biased! I bought my Greek Harehound as an adult from our neighbors' on the island of Crete. She has no pedigree of course as these dogs are typically bred for purpose (hunting) and not for the show ring. A bit scared around ppl and metal objects/strange surfaces but this has probably more to do with her upbringing and puppyhood. She is totally fearless outside and can climb mountains like a goat. Totally calm around gun shots and fireworks as well. Great size, affectionate and agile.

It has quickly become to be! We found our Greek baby Nero whilst holidaying in Crete, and we believe him to be a Greek Harehound X Saluki. He now has an adopted sister Olive who we think may be a Greek Harehound mix. Highly recommend rescuing this beautiful breed 💓

I have a Greek Harehound called Inca, she came from Cyprus and lives with me in the UK. She is the most loving and friendly breed you could meet. But you missed something important in the video, how vocal they are! Mine sings when she sees a squirrel or a cat 😂

We got one in Crete. It was running in the middle of nowhere, tried to find the owner but then we realized it was abused. Dog was probably 5-7 months old so it took us quite some time to make him feel safe. Very strong willed, super intelligent - 3 clicks and it can learn anything. Local vet told us it was a mix-breed but primarily coming from a German shephard (lol). I somehow agreed because of how smart the dog was. However; it is a dog that was bred for a certain purpose. Do not expect it to be a shepherd dog :D Good with other dogs, people and kids. Be prepared to invest A LOT of time. We are still getting there :p

So funny seeing the photos and video of my dogs in this. Just so everyone is aware, the little dog with the greekie on some photos and one video is actually a Jackshund, but they are the best of friends! I could not be without my Greekie, Monty, who we rescued from Cyprus. The picture at 1:50 is actually the day we got him, we was so skinny and has came on a lot since then. He is so loving and funny, if you adopt one of them you will never be bored and you will be so so loved forever. Great video, rocadog!

My dad always told me our dog was a black and tan coon hound mix - I see now quite clearly that she is in fact something closer to a pure bred Greek Hare Hound. It is unequivocal. And I'm shocked.

Nice video mate! Many Greek friends of mine who hunt hares and boars have at least one dog each! They are perfect hunting dogs and very playful and social when not hunting. You forgot to mention that their common name is Greece is Gkekas (Γκέκας in Greek) and the funny thing is that most people, who are even owners, don't know that their formal name is Hellenic Harehound (Ελληνικός ιχνηλάτης)!

i have noticed that some greek harehounds are medium while others are large is this something with purity of the dog or is it people mistaking a breed that people rarely know
