The Argentine Pila or Perro Pila Argentino is an Argentine breed of hairless dog.[1] It was recognised by the Asociación Canina Argentina in 2007.[1][2] It forms part of the large group of South American hairless breeds and types, but is distinct from other modern breeds such as the Chinese Crested, the Peruvian Hairless and the Xoloitzcuintle.[3] It is generally dark-skinned, or light-skinned with dark spots.[4]
