As an Afghan Pushton from Kandahar, I have seen these dogs in all over Afghanistan varying in coat dept, weight and color. Afghan is synonomous with Pashton. Pukhton's (Pashtun's of North West Frontier Province in Pakistan) are not considered Pakistani's by the Punjabi Pakistan'i Government, they are considered Afghan. Please refrain from using words such as "Afghan take your dog". Hisoricaly half of Iran, to New Dehli belonged to Afghanistan prior to the era of the great Game which British created Pakistan to divide ethnic afghans in this buffer region. The Saka-Aryan Pushton's brought their dogs to Pakistan and India during the last several thousand years with their flocks of sheep. Alexander had them in his military as well as Gengis Khan.
