Summary
About Australian Shepherd
The Australian Shepherd is a medium, athletic herding dog, highly intelligent and energetic. Loyal and people oriented, it bonds closely and needs substantial daily exercise, training, and mental work. Its striking, weather resistant coat and varied eye colors add to its appeal.
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.
