Pye-dog

Dog type

Pye-dog, also known as the pariah dog, is a term used to describe an ownerless, half-wild, free-ranging dog that lives in or close to human settlements throughout South Asia, South China, the Middle East and North Africa. The term is derived from the Hindi pāhī, which translates to "outsider". The appearance of pye-dogs varies considerably across the extent of its range.
