Summary
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.
About Bearded Collie
The Bearded Collie is a lively Scottish herding dog with a shaggy double coat, bright eyes, and an agile build. Affectionate, intelligent, and sensitive, it needs plenty of daily exercise, mental stimulation, and regular grooming. Generally healthy, it often lives 12–14 years or more.
