Sarail hound
Sarail Hound (Bengali: সরাইল হাউন্ড), also known as Bengal Hound, is a breed of dog indigenous to Bangladesh. This dog, which is the only breed native to Bangladesh, is found in the Sarail Upazila of the Brahmanbaria District. Known for their strong bone structure, elongated bodies, sharp eyesight and speed, these dogs were traditionally used for hunting and security. However, this breed is currently on the verge of extinction, and they can be found in a few families across Sarail.

What to Know Before Buying a Sarail hound
Finding a responsible Sarail hound breeder requires more than browsing classified ads or responding to social media posts. The USDA requires any breeder who sells dogs commercially — especially those selling online or through third-party dealers — to hold a federal license and submit to regular inspections. A legitimate breeder should be willing to provide their USDA license number, invite you to visit their facility, and show you where the animals are housed and socialized.
Before committing to a purchase, ask the breeder for veterinary health records, vaccination documentation, and any genetic testing results relevant to the Sarail hound. Reputable breeders will also ask you questions in return — about your living situation, experience with animals, and ability to provide long-term care. A breeder who asks no questions and is eager to ship an animal immediately is a significant red flag.
Use the search tool below to check whether any USDA-licensed facilities breeding Sarail hounds appear in our database. If they do, review their inspection history carefully. Look for patterns of violations, pay attention to severity levels, and compare their compliance grade with other breeders in the same state. This due diligence takes minutes and can save you from supporting a facility with documented animal welfare problems.
