On Ibiza we have a local dog breed, originally brought from Egypt to the Island by the Phoenicians. The Podenco is a hunting hound, usually for rabbits, and used in packs. Traditionally abused by their owners, starved and badly treated in general. Of late they are being recognised for what they are, a loving, intelligent and noble dog. There are now Podenco rescue centres all over the world. The Podenco in Egypt was the guardian of the Pharaohs tombs.
