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 Lakeland Terrier
Compact, hardy terrier from England’s Lake District, bred to hunt foxes over rough ground. Agile, confident and lively, yet affectionate at home. Needs regular hand‑stripped coat care, daily exercise, mental stimulation and early socialization; makes an alert, polite watchdog.
