What does this dog breed called?, I'm not sure about EU or USA but if you lived in Asia or Latin America this dog is like the default skin for street dogs (lemmy.ml)

here in argentina we call them galgos, i think galgos are an actual breed but we use it to mean those kinda skinny street dogs. we also say they are "marca perro" this means their "brand" is "dog", brand is like a wordplay on the race in this case. so it would mean their race is dog, lol.
