4296. It was narrated from Sâlim bin 'Abdullâh that his father said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Whoever keeps a dog except a dog for herding livestock or a dog for hunting, one Qirât will be deducted from his reward each day.'" 'Abdullâh said: "Abû Hurairah said: 'Or a dog for farming.'" (Sahîh)

4291 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَرْمَلَةَ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنِ اقْتَنَى كَلْبًا إِلَّا كَلْبَ مَاشِيَةٍ أَوْ كَلْبَ صَيْدٍ نَقَصَ مِنْ عَمَلِهِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ قِيرَاطٌ» قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ أَوْ كَلْبَ حَرْثٍ

Commentary

A hunting dog signifies the dog which is practically used for hunting, meaning hunting is done by means of it, not that it is of hunting dogs pedigree as is nowadays understood.
