Sarail hound
Dog breeds originating in Bangladesh
Sarail hounds are legendary dogs of Bangladesh. Descended from Arabic Saluks, they were bred over hundreds of years into superior hunting dogs by Moghul generals and aristocrats at the village of Sarail. They have served in the army and police, as hunting and guard dogs, and as devoted pets. M.A.G. Osmani, who led Bangladesh's Freedom fighters to victory against Pakistan Civil War (1971) war of Independence, is said to have been saved by one of two Sarails he owned when he was attacked. These Race dogs are considered as the “National Dog of Bangladesh” respectively.
