• Azawakh

    Athletic and elegant, the Azawakh has a fine bone structure and lean build. The outlines of this sighthound's ribs and hip bones are often visible through its skin.

  • Group: Middle Eastern and African
    Lifespan: 12–15 yr
    Height: 23–29 in
    Weight: 37–60 lb

  • Care

    The Azawakh's short, fine coat requires little care. (In fact, bathing isn't typically required.) Use a soft bristle brush or grooming mitt on your dog once a week to remove loose or cast-off fur. Trimming nails, cleaning ears, and brushing teeth should also be part of every dog's grooming routine, regardless of breed.
