Ibizan Hounds are medium to large-sized dogs. Males typically weigh between 50-65 pounds and stand about 24-28 inches tall at the shoulder, while females generally weigh between 40-55 pounds and stand around 22-26 inches tall.

Ibizan Hounds are known for their friendly, affectionate, and intelligent demeanor. They are typically good with children and can get along well with other pets if properly socialized. However, they possess a strong prey drive, which can lead them to chase smaller animals. They are independent thinkers and can sometimes appear aloof or reserved, but they are loyal companions.

The coat of the Ibizan Hound can be either short or long. The short-haired variety has a sleek, smooth coat, while the long-haired variety features a finer, flowing coat. Both types have a straight outer coat and a soft undercoat. They are commonly seen in various colors, including white, red, and tan, often with different combinations and patterns.

This breed thrives in active households where they receive plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. Ibizan Hounds do best in homes with plenty of space to run and play, such as large yards or access to open areas. They do not adapt well to sedentary lifestyles, as they need regular physical activity to stay happy and healthy.

Ibizan Hounds excel in a variety of activities that allow them to showcase their agility and speed. They enjoy lure coursing, agility training, and obedience exercises. Daily walks, running, and playtime are essential for their well-being. They are also known for their tendency to explore, so safe areas for off-leash activities are important.
