General Appearance
The Carolina Dog is a medium built dog, manifesting the features of most pariah/feral dog types. The large, erect ears (designed for optimal sound retrieval and possibly body temperature regulation), long, curved tail (used for signaling and communication) and short, dense coat have been naturally selected for to ensure survival under free-ranging conditions. Carolina Dogs should be kept in a natural state, with no trimming (other than nails) allowed at any time.

Temperament
The Carolina Dog is naturally suspicious of strangers. Around those it knows, it is quiet, reserved, somewhat aloof, yet affectionate. Unprovoked aggression toward any human is not to be tolerated.

Head and Skull
The skull is broad between the ears, moderately rounded with a distinct furrow extending down between the eyes. There is a slight but distinct stop. the head forms a wide triangle-shaped wedge, tapering to a long, distinctly pointed muzzle. Muzzle length is equal to or slightly greater than skull length.
