Pictures of Ibizan Hounds appear in ancient hieroglyphs in Egyptian pyramids. On the Island of Ibiza, it has been considered terrible luck to kill an Ibizan Hound. Owners who have wanted to get rid of their dogs release them on the opposite side of the island in hopes that someone will adopt them. Ibizan Hounds are known as escape artists and can even jump many feet in the air from a standstill and leap over high fences. Ibizan Hounds blush when they get excited.
