Frequently Asked Questions
Where does the Vikhan come from?
The Vikhan is an ancient livestock-guardian dog of the Chitral region of Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, with relatives in the Indian Himalayas. It guards sheep and goats in the mountains against snow leopards, wolves and bears. Mountain picks like Scout, Ranger, Cliff, and Timber suit its home.
How is the Vikhan different from other guardian dogs?
Unlike the heavy mastiff-type guardians, the Vikhan is lighter and built more for speed and agility, often likened to a large Scotch Collie. It has a long dense coat, sometimes shorn for wool, with drooped ears and a bushy tail.
What colours and names suit a Vikhan?
Coats come in black, red, brown, fawn and spotted patterns. A black dog suits Onyx, Jet, and Shadow; a red or fawn one suits Rusty, Ginger, Copper, Sandy, and Fawn; and a spotted coat suits Spot, Domino, and Pepper.
