Egyptian Razorback - Basic Information
English Names: Egyptian Razorback, Egyptian Ridgeback
Arabic Name: عمود فقري حاد
3amod fukry 7aad (pronounced "Ahmoud Foukry Hahd"), literally means "sharp spine", written here in Franco-Arabic, with phonetic pronunciation.
The Egyptian Razorback is a medium-sized dog, approximately 17-22 inches at the withers and weighing anywhere from 25 to 50 lbs. The breed's most distinctive features are their egg-shaped heads with prominent Roman noses and the ridge of fur which stands up along their spines. The fur on working dogs is typically smooth but well-to-do pet owners particularly enjoy the feathered variety. While the dogs are quite well-muscled, they are also incredibly lean with well-defined ribs and prominent bone structure.
As for coloration, their eyes are frequently blue regardless of coat color, although they may also be brown, amber, or rarely a pale green. Heterochromia is also commmon and may be complete, sectoral, or even central. The skin on their nose and paw pads may be black, liver, blue, pink, or mottled. Their tongues may be either blue, pink, or spotted and while the blue tongue is more rare it is highly prized.
While there are no strict limitations on coat color, brindle and merle tend to be more common while piebald appears less frequently. All natural colors and patterns are permitted.
