The Indian Dog was electively bred by the Plains Indians for thousands of years.
These unique creatures were far more than household pets, enjoying a symbiotic relationship between man and animal that is rare in the annals of the human race.
A natural hunting companion, the Indian Dog was also used for herding and guarding the campsites of these nomads. When ponies were not available, this versatile canine could pull the sled Iike travois. It's fur often was used in weaving and, in times of famine these dogs were sacrificed for food.
As the onslaught of European cultures wrecked havoc on the Native Americans, these dogs shared the fate of their masters and were almost eliminated.
Now they have re-create the Indian dogs who looks like the old Indian dogs with mixed breeds.
While very cautious with strangers, the Indian Dog trains beautifully in just about any direction required.
The coyote-like appearance of the Indian Dog is no coincidence. The Native Americans believed the coyote, whom they named God's Dog, were the first beings on earth and would be the last. Many tribes continued to breed their dogs back to their coyote cousins to maintain survival instincts, pack loyalty and high intelligence qualities.
