Summary
About Dogue de Bordeaux
The Dogue de Bordeaux is a massive French mastiff with a huge wrinkled head and short fawn coat. Calm, deeply attached, and often bonded to one person, it’s a quiet but protective family dog needing moderate exercise, constant human closeness, and tolerance for heavy drool and snoring.
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.
