The Pachón Navarro

Basque breeds of dog, the others being the Basque Shepherd Dog, the Erbi Txakur, the Villano de Las Encartaciones and the Villanuco de Las Encartaciones.[2][3]

History

The Pachón is believed to be among the oldest

iconographic evidence going back to the Middle Ages. In the nineteenth century, as hunting became an occupation of the bourgeoisie, it became widespread through much of Spain under number of names such as Pachón, Pachón de Vitoria, Pachón español, Perdiguero común and Perdiguero navarro. Dogs of this type were exhibited in the earliest Spanish dog shows in the 1890s.[4]

The Pachón was among the breeds recognised by the

breed society, the Asociación Nacional Pro Recuperación del Pachón Navarro, was established in Laserna [es] in Álava in 2001, followed by the Círculo de Cazadores y Criadores de Pachón Navarro in Pamplona in 2002.[4]: 559  A breed standard was published by the government of Navarre in 2006, and in 2010 the Pachón was added to the list of dog breeds recognised by the Spanish government.[1][6] It is not recognised by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale
.

In 2009 the total breed population was estimated to be between 700 and 1000 dogs.[4]: 560 

Characteristics

The Pachón is usually short-haired.[1] The coat is highly variable, and may be unicoloured, bicoloured or tricoloured.[7] The most common colours are black-and-white, chestnut-and-white, liver-and-white and orange-and-white, all with patches and specks of colour on a white background.[4]: 561 

A few examples display an unusual characteristic, a split or bifid nose,[1] a trait shared with the Turkish Tarsus çatalburun.
