PCH=Saluki Several breeds are given this title of the "oldest breed". One, which has long been the most common one listed as the oldest, is the Pharaoh Hound, which has been depicted in pictures in Egypt back as far as 3000 to 4000 BC. Until very recently it was thought to be the oldest. Recent DNA studies have put that into question and listed the 14 most ancient breeds of dogs based on that DNA study and, interestingly the Pharaoh Hound isn't one of the 14. The list of 14 includes: * Saluki -- from Egypt * Afghan Hound -- from Afghanistan * Chow Chow -- from China * Tibetan Terrier -- from Tibet * Pekingese -- from China * Basingi -- from Democratic Republic of the Congo * Akita Inu -- from Japan * Shiba Inu -- from Japan * Shih Tzu -- from Tibet * Lhasa Apso -- from Tibet * Shar Pei -- from China * Samoyed -- from Siberia * Siberian Husky -- from Siberia * Alaskan Malmute -- from United States
