Xiasi Dog

Also known as the Xiasi Hound and Xiasi Quan, the Xiasi Dog is an ancient, medium-sized breed hailing from the mountainous Guizhou region of China. Originally used to guard property and hunt all manner of prey, the Xiasi Dog is incredibly rare by today's standards, with fewer than 300 in existence. Their thick wiry coats and lean, well-muscled frames allowed them to hunt in the treacherous mountains of their homeland. Small enough to maneuver tight spaces and low brush yet large enough to take down prey, the Xiasi Dog made the ideal hunting partner. Known to bond fiercely with their people, the Xiasi Dog is as loyal as they come. Their gentle, protective, and patient natures make them wonderful companions and family dogs. With floppy ears, an all-white coat, large eyes, and a teddy bear face, the Xiasi Dog is an undeniably attractive breed!
