Introduction

Ibijan is a lit and footed visitor since the dawn of civilization. Students of art history will recognize an enlarged head with its large raised ears, in a familiar form of ancient Egypt. The elegant scarlet body measures 22.5 to 27.5 at the shoulder, with coat colors of solid red or white or red and white patterns. The pink colored leather of the nose, eye rim, and lips — as well as amber or caramel eyes — complements the coat perfectly. The calm grace of the breed is often described as that of a deer.

History

Ibiza is one of the Balearic Islands, off the Mediterranean coast of Spain. About 3,000 years ago, Phoenician traders first brought Egyptian wounds to the rocky island. Islanders used packs of these wounds as rabbit predators. Food was scarce on rugged Ibiza. For hunters and hunters, chasing rabbits was not a game – it was a matter of eating or feeling hungry. After these many centuries, the Ibis still consider the bright courtyards to be blazing at a blazing speed.

General Appearance

Ibijan’s clean lines, large prickly ears and light pigment give it a distinct appearance. A Hunting Dog whose quarry is primarily of rabbits, this ancient hound was bred for thousands of years, being of prime importance. Lethe and Raci, Ibijan have a grand elegance combined with the power of a hunter. Without strong, heavy muscle, Ibizaan is a part of moderation. With the exception of the ear, he should not appear extreme or exaggerated.
