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 German Spitz – Giant
The German Spitz – Giant (Grossspitz) is a medium, square-built spitz with a thick double coat and proud, foxlike look. An alert, vocal watchdog, it’s active, intelligent and sensitive, bonding closely with its family. Needs regular brushing, early socialisation, kind training and daily exercise.
