'''Nawab Ahmad Ali Khan Bahadur''' (12 October 1787 – 5 July 1840) was Nawab of Rampur from 1794 to 1840, succeeding his brother [[Ghulam Muhammad Khan Bahadur]]. The only son of [[Muhammad Ali Khan Bahadur]], Ahmad Ali was made Nawab following the deposition of his cousin Ghulam Muhammad by the [[British East India Company]] and the [[Nawab of Awadh]]. Ahmad Ali ruled for 46 years, although he reigned from 1794 to 1811 under a regency. He transformed the cultural fabric of Rampur and started a tradition of cultural involvement that has been maintained by his successors to the present day. In 1801, Rampur became a vassal of the HEIC following the cession of Rohilkand by the Nawab of Awadh. Ahmad Ali died on 5 July 1840, aged 52. As his only son had died young, he was succeeded as Nawab by his cousin, [[Muhammad Said Khan Bahadur]].{{cn|date=June 2020}}<br />
<br />
Ahmad Ali Khan is credited with developing the dog breed known as [[Rampur Hound]]. He bred these dogs by combining the ferocious [[Afghan hound|''Tāzī'']] Afghan dogs with the [[English Greyhound]], more obedient but less resistant to the harsher local weather. The Nawab gave the name 'Rampur Hound' to the dogs he bred.<ref>[http://rareindianbreeddogs.blogspot.com/2010/01/rampur-hound.html Rampur Hound]</ref><br />
