Summary
About Alaskan Malamute
The Alaskan Malamute is a large, powerful Arctic sled dog bred by the Mahlemut Inuit to pull heavy loads. It has a dense double coat that sheds heavily, a friendly, social nature, strong prey and working drive, high exercise needs, and can be independent and challenging to train.
About Sloughi
An elegant, long-legged sighthound from North Africa with a short coat, a gentle expression, and a strong prey drive. The Sloughi is often calm and affectionate with family but reserved around strangers. It needs daily walks, regular opportunities to run in a securely enclosed area, and gentle training. Close companionship, early socialization, and a warm place to rest are important parts of its daily life.
