Neither, they are more closely related to the cat family. The family they are in is called : Hyaenidae. They have basic physical characteristics of dogs but do not belong in the same family.

Even though the hyena is not closely related to the dog, the hyena is still doglike. The hyena is doglike because his or her facial features look like a dog's face. The hyena is more closely related to the cat than the dog. The hyena is a close relative to the mongoose family. Thus, the hyena can be defined as a doglike animal that is closely related to the civet cats yet distantly related to the domestic cats.

i'd imagine it would be raised in Africa and be part hyena or something like dat. It would have to be fast, have alot of stamin, and be able to w/o water.
Dingos live in Australia, while hyenas live in Africa. I think you meant the "Cape Hunting Dog" which does live in Africa. Cape hunting dogs hunt in family packs and could kill and eat a single hyena, but would avoid a pack of hyenas. It is a question of is it worth risking injury or death by attacking a strong animal such as a hyena, when there is grazing animals nearby?
