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 Field Spaniel
Medium, athletic gundog with a glossy, feathered coat and dark, expressive eyes. Calm yet enthusiastic, deeply attached to family and often sensitive. Needs kind, consistent training, regular exercise, and mental work. Still relatively rare, valued by dedicated enthusiasts.
