The Podengo comes in three sizes that are not interbred - small (Pequeno) medium (Medio) and large (Grande) each size with two hair coats (smooth and wire coat) and its own unique temperament. All three sizes love to hunt its tradition in their native country. Typically the dogs hunt in a pack with their human companion following them on large tracts of land with lots of game.
