Many Pharaohs of ancient Egypt loved to be portrayed with their dogs in hunting scenes or 'accompanied' on the walls of their tombs on their journey to the other world.
One of the most artistically realistic examples is this scene at the age of Tuthmose I (18th dynasty, 16th century BC, but this is a reconstruction), a man returning from hunting with a gazelle on his shoulder, a wild rabbit in his hand and his Sloughi next to him.
