Who is this breed suited to?
The Rampur suits someone seeking a north Indian sighthound and able to arrange secure movement while examining the particular family's background.
Daily time commitment
Combine walks with safely enclosed running opportunities matched to fitness. Regional hunting history does not establish one precise daily exercise requirement.
Coat and everyday care
Ask a keeper to show routine coat and foot checks after running; care should follow the actual dog and conditions it lives in.
Challenges to plan for
Chase interest can complicate open-field recall. Evaluate boundaries, access to wildlife and adult behaviour before deciding that a lean outline is an easy fit.
How does it compare?
The Greyhound is a practical sighthound comparison, but the Rampur's regional identity should not be reduced to an identical breed under another name.
Questions to ask a breeder
What records establish the line, how do adults behave away from running, and what health, handling and puppy-raising information is available?
