ʻO Afghan Hound, a i ʻole Afghan no ka pōkole, ʻo ia kekahi o nā ʻano ʻīlio makaʻala kahiko loa ma ka honua. Mahalo i kona hiʻohiʻona nani a me ka lōʻihi, ke kapa siliki, hauʻoli nui ia i ka kaulana. Ma ka moʻolelo, e aʻo ʻoe i nā mea āpau e pili ana i ka mōʻaukala, ke ʻano, a me ka mālama ʻana i nā ʻīlio kumu.
Moolelo o ka Hound Afghan
Ma mua o 4000 BC, ua hānai nā poʻe Afghan i ka Hindu Kush i nā kūpuna o ka greyhound Afghan. Ua mahalo nui ʻia nā ʻīlio liʻiliʻi a manaʻo ʻia he mau mea waiwai. Me kā lākou mākaukau hahai holoholona maikaʻi loa, ua hōʻoia ka greyhounds i ke ola o ka poʻe nomad ma nā mauna. He mau ʻīlio kiaʻi lākou no nā kahua hoʻomoana a me nā kauhale. ʻEkolu mau ʻano like ʻole i ʻike ʻia: ka mauna, ka ʻāina haʻahaʻa, a me ka lauoho pōkole ʻo Afghan. I ka hoʻomaka wale ʻana o ke kenekulia 20 i hōʻea nā ʻelele mua o ka pua i ʻEulopa, ʻoiai ka pāpā ʻana i ka lawe ʻana aku.
Ua lawe mai ʻo Kāpena John Barff i ke kāne Zardin i ʻEnelani. Hana ʻia kēia ma ke ʻano he kumu hoʻohālike no ka maʻamau maʻamau i nā makahiki 1920. Ua ʻike ka British Kennel Club i ka "Mountain Afghan" ma ke ʻano he ʻano mana. I kēia manawa, ua hoʻomaka ka hoʻokaʻawale ʻana ma waena o ka hōʻike Afghans a me ka heihei Afghans. ʻO nā holoholona hōʻike nui loa i loaʻa i kahi kapa komo i lalo i ka lepo, kahi hiki ʻole ke hele maʻamau. I ka makahiki 1961, ua ʻike ʻia ka FCI i ka Afghan Hound. Aia ʻo ia i loko o ka FCI Group 10 "Sighthounds" ma ka Pauku 1 "Long-haired or feathered sighthounds".
ʻAno a me ke ʻano
He ʻīlio kūʻokoʻa ka Afghan Hound a ma ka manawa like. ʻO ia ka manaʻo kanaka a paʻakikī akā mālama i kona poʻo ponoʻī. He malihini ka hoʻolohe ʻana i nā ʻīlio haʻaheo, ʻaʻole naʻe lākou i ka huhū. Hana maikaʻi ʻia kahi Afghan Hound i kahi ʻīlio ʻohana maikaʻi e makaʻala me nā keiki. Loaʻa iā ia kahi manaʻo hahai holoholona ikaika a hiki i ka poʻe ʻoihana ke paʻakikī ke kāohi. I loko naʻe o kona mau pā ʻehā, he ʻoluʻolu, ʻoluʻolu, ʻaʻole ʻike ʻia. Kakaʻikahi ʻo ia i ka ʻū a ʻaʻohe ona manaʻo pale a kahu hānai. He launa pū ka social sighthound i nā malihini a me nā ʻīlio ʻē aʻe.
ʻO ke ʻano o ka Hound Afghan
Me ke kiʻekiʻe i ka maloʻo a hiki i 74 kenimika, ʻo Afghan Hound kekahi o nā ʻīlio nui. ʻOiai ʻo kona nui, ʻaʻole ia he puʻupuʻu akā neʻe me ka nani a me ka nani. ʻO kona helehelena holoʻokoʻa e hōʻike ana i ka ikaika a me ka hanohano. Pololei ke kua a hāʻule iki i ke kumu o ka huelo wili wale. Wahi a ka VDH maʻamau, pono e ʻike maopopo ʻia nā iwi ʻūhā, akā ʻaʻole pono ka ʻīlio i ka ʻili.
Hoʻopau nā wāwae muscular mua i nā wāwae nui i uhi ʻia i ka lauoho lōʻihi. ʻO ka hiʻohiʻona ʻokoʻa loa o ka sighthound, ʻo ia kona ʻaʻahu lōʻihi a silika. Ma ke poʻo, hana ka lauoho i kahi puʻupuʻu kaulana ("top knot") e hoʻomanaʻo ana i ka lauoho wahine. Ma kahi o ka noho lio, he pōkole a paʻa ka ʻaʻahu. ʻAʻole kuhikuhi ʻia kahi waihoʻoluʻu kikoʻī, me nā kala kala, ke kala, a me ka ʻeleʻele-ʻeleʻele ka mea nui.
Hoonaauao o ka Ilio
Ma muli o kona hoʻohana mua ʻana ma ke ʻano he ʻīlio hahai holoholona ma kāna pono ponoʻī, ʻaʻole maʻalahi ka Afghan Hound e aʻo. ʻAʻole ʻo ia e hoʻohaʻahaʻa, akā mālama mau i kona haʻaheo a me kona makemake ponoʻī. Me ka hoʻomanawanui a me ke kūpaʻa, hiki iā ʻoe ke aʻo i ka Afghan e hoʻolohe. Ma keʻano laulā, hoʻāʻo ʻo ia e hana i kona manaʻo e hana. He mea paʻakikī loa ka mālama ʻana i ka naʻau hahai holoholona o ka ʻīlio no ka mea he kanaka hahai holoholona ʻo ia ma mua. Ke ʻike koke ʻo ia i nā mea pio, ʻaʻole ʻo ia e kānalua a hoʻomaka i ka holo. No laila he mea nui e aʻo nā ʻīlio nui i nā kauoha kumu i ka wā ʻōpio. E hōʻoia ʻiʻo nō nā hoa Sighthound e hiki i kahi hound Afghan ke hoʻomaʻamaʻa i kāna mea nona a ʻaʻole ma ke ala ʻē aʻe.
Nā hana me ka Afghan Hound
No ka mea, ʻo ka greyhound he kanaka akamai a me ka holo wikiwiki, pono ia i kahi pae hoʻoikaika kūpono. ʻO ka mea pōʻino, ma kahi ʻāina ākea e like me Kelemania, paʻakikī ke hoʻokō i nā pono o ka ʻīlio. Paʻakikī hoʻi ka mea holoʻokoʻa ma muli o ka ikaika o ka hopu holoholona a me ka loaʻa ʻole o nā ʻīlio.
