Salukis embody grace and speed. They were originally bred for strength and endurance, as made evident by their long, narrow heads and sleek, muscular bodies. Salukis are beautiful, graceful dogs that are affectionate yet reserved. They may not be over demonstrative, but don’t let that fool you; they are full of poise and understated affection for their family. While they are widely admired for their exotic, regal looks and demeanour, these dogs are not meant for everyone. Few people can match the energy levels and exercise requirements of a Saluki. If you prefer running to walking and buzzing about rather than switching channels in front of a TV, the Saluki may be the perfect dog for you.
