Whoever wrote this 'article' has absolutely NO idea what they are talking about. You will never pay anywhere near $5000 for a Pharaoh Hound! And 'rarely seen outside of Malta'??? Are you kidding me?? There are respected breeders all over the United States and Europe!
I hope people will do their own research on a breed before they take the word of an uneducated 'journalist'. Visit the Pharaoh Hound Club of America's website to learn about the breed.
Umm, no

Except for the Savannah and Tibetian Mastiff, the rest aren't all that expensive. Any well-bred (health testing, papers, working parents) dog can set someone back thousands.

Ummmm Pharaoh Hounds? Really? I have two of them and they are NOT that expensive. Not really sure how you came up with them for #7.
Egyptian Pharaoh Hound
The Egyptian Pharaoh Hound is a striking breed of dog that was traditionally used as a companion for hunters from the Mediterranean country of Malta. Egyptian pharaoh hounds are strong, athletic, independent and active dogs that are rarely found outside of Malta. These dogs are beautiful but costly — a puppy can easily set you back $5,000.
