Type of hound (6)

I believe the answer is:
afghan
'type of hound' is the definition.
(Afghan hound is a breed of dog)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for afghan that I've seen before include "from somewhere in central Asia" , "Person from Jalalabad" , "tongue" , "Tall, graceful hound with silky coat" , "Tall hunting dog" .)
