Pye-dog, or sometimes pariah dog, is a term used to describe an ownerless, half-wild, free-ranging dog that lives in or close to human settlements throughout Asia. The term is derived from the Sanskrit para, which translates to "outsider".^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]

The United Kennel Club uses the term pariah dog to classify various breeds in a sighthound and pariah group.^[5]
