Summary
About German Hunt Terrier
The German Hunt Terrier is a compact, athletic working terrier bred in Germany for demanding hunting. Highly driven, fearless, and loyal, it needs intensive daily exercise, firm reward‑based training, and experienced handling. Weather‑resistant coat, moderate shedding, best for active sport or hunting homes.
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.
