The Mahratta Hound, sometimes called the Mahratta Greyhound, is a breed of dog found in India.

[1][2][3] It is a sighthound, and like the Banjara Hound it is bred and used for hunting by the nomadic Banjara of Maharashtra.

[2][3] The Mahratta Hound is believed to be of Arabian or Persian heritage, is often blue and tan in colour and stands around 22 inches (56 cm).

[4] It is prized for its prowess in hunting panther and boar, both very formidable prey for a hound, as well as blackbuck.
