Segugio Italiano

The Segugio Italiano [seˈɡudʒo itaˈljano] is either of two Italian breeds of dog of the scenthound family, either the Segugio italiano a pelo forte (wire-haired)[1] or the Segugio italiano a pelo raso (short-haired).[2] In 2009 the Ente Nazionale della Cinofilia Italiana registered 1740 of the wire-haired breed and 4500 of the short-haired.[3]

Characteristics

When seen from the side, the body of a Segugio Italiano is approximately square in shape – the body length is the same as the height at the withers. It may be any shade of fawn-coloured, or black and tan. Wire-haired dogs stand 52–60 cm and weigh 20–28 kg, bitches are about 2 cm shorter and weigh on average 2 kg less.[1] The short-haired breed is approximately 2 cm smaller, with weights in the same range.[2]

gollark: No, I mean if I make 2 + 2 be 5 it'll probably break some applications.
gollark: I worry that this will break much backwards compatibility... maybe behind some sort of annoyingly global flag?
gollark: Ah, yes, a wise suggestion.
gollark: Or just 5, instead of 120.
