The dhole (Cuon alpinus) of Asia is a dog of the Caninae family and Canini tribe, but has its own genus. You would recognize this creature as a dog, but it has more teats and fewer teeth than Canis, and whistles more than it barks or howls. They live in the forests and steppes of Russia, the Himalayas, and even as far south as Java. The biggest number of these endangered dogs live in India.

Here's a website with proper information on these lovely creatures:

I personally saw one of these lovelies at the San Diego Zoo. They are also called "Singing Dogs" because as the name states, they make one of the COOLEST sounds i've ever heard from a canine!

:) Anyone else for them?! This will be the first thing I ever breed on HP if they get accepted!

Cheers!
