Summary
About Airedale Terrier
The Airedale Terrier is the largest terrier, an athletic, wiry‑coated dog that sheds little but needs regular grooming. Bright, independent and energetic, it needs varied training and 1.5–2 hours of daily exercise. Loyal, playful and watchful, it makes a versatile family and working companion.
About Azawakh
The Azawakh is an ancient Sahel sighthound: tall, ultra-lean and fast, bred by Tuareg nomads for guarding and hunting. Loyal and gentle with family but aloof with strangers, it needs secure fencing, ample daily exercise, a soft warm bed, and protection from cold due to its thin, short coat.
