Summary
About Saluki
The Saluki is an ancient, elegant sighthound known for speed, endurance, and a calm, sensitive nature. Gentle yet independent, it needs kind training, secure space to sprint, moderate grooming for its fine coat, and careful handling of strong chase and prey instincts.
About Belgian Griffon
Small, sturdy toy dog from Brussels with a humanlike “monkey face” and big eyes. Rough, wiry coat in black or black and tan. Deeply attached, sensitive, and people focused, they are lively, intelligent, alert watchdogs who thrive on gentle training, company, and regular grooming.
