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 Norrbottenspets
The Norrbottenspets is a rare Nordic spitz: small to medium, athletic, with a foxlike look and curled tail. Bred in Sweden/Finland for forest bird hunting, it is vocal, alert, loyal, and reserved with strangers. Needs daily exercise, mental work, and close family involvement.
