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.
