From a Balkan hound to the Serbian Hound

The FCI standard places this dog among the scent hounds spread across the Balkans and says hounds from Asia Minor may have contributed to its ancestry. In the FCI account, its name changed from Balkan Scenthound to Serbian Hound in 1996 because it was most widespread in Serbia.
