The Ariegeois is an incredibly elegant, medium-sized scenthound from the Ariège region of France. Bred to hunt hare and deer in packs, they possess a beautiful, sleek white and black coat with distinctive tan markings. They are highly agile, fiercely driven, and possess a melodious baying voice.
Because they are bred to work in packs, the Ariegeois is exceptionally social and absolutely hates being left alone; they thrive in multi-dog households. They are gentle and affectionate indoors but turn into relentless trackers outdoors. They require massive amounts of running in secure areas. Their short coat is incredibly easy to groom, needing only a quick weekly brush.
