	Dog breeds : Azawakh / Sloughi Azawakh / Tuareg Sloughi
		The Azawakh is a desert hound hailing from the sands of the Sahel (Burkina Faso, Niger, and Mali.) The Azawakh is a loyal companion, however, there are health problems in the breed.
		The original homeland of the Azawakh is the endless arid region of the south Sahara and Sahel, which encompasses the countries of Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso.
		Azawakh means "land of the north," and the breed is named for the Azawakh Valley.

		In the course of the expedition, 212 Azawakhs were registered under the condition of a close-up inspection (123 specimens in northern Niger and Mali, 89 in the Beli region).
		The idea to extablish an organisation to protect the Azawakhs in their African homelands was born in the course of the "1st International International Azawakh Expedition" which led in a group of sighthound friends from Germany, Austria, the United States and Mexico to visit Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso in March 1992.
		Part of this european image is the emphasis on the use of Azawakhs as hunting dogs, assisting their veiled masters on noble Arab horses in the chase of gazelles and lions.

	Rare Breed Network: The Azawakh: by David Moore
		Although theoretically and for practical purposes the Azawakh may be categorized as a sighthound, a rigid or strict reliance on this term and its implied behavioral parameters as a means of understanding and predicting Azawakh behavior can lead to confusion and miscommunication.
		With fewer than one thousand Azawakh extant, and with well over half of these facing an increasingly precarious future in their west African homeland, conscientious preservationist breeding of these proud and aristocratic hounds can contribute positively towards this future, perhaps ensuring the very survival of the "idi n'illeli", the "hound of the free people".
		Owing to the ingravescent impoverishment of the nomads, the keeping of an Azawakh is a heavy economic burden as soon as millet, the main nourishment of men and hounds alike, becomes scarce.

		Although the Azawakh may not be a common dog in many parts of the world, this breed has existed for centuries in Africa, where it originated with the nomads of the South Sahara.
		Azawakhs, being spirited family participants, freely volunteer their assistance when another family member is being disciplined.
		The Azawakh should be fed a diet with a fat content of 12-16% fat to maintain good weight and a healthy coat; a moderate level of protein (22-26%) is advisable.

	azawakh breed guide
		He is very intelligent and trainable although the Azawakh needs to feel it is worth doing he is not the breed for you if you require a perfectly biddable dog, He adores his owners and will not go easily to another home as an adult dog.
		The Azawakh needs to be socialised from an early age and it is advisable to get a puppy from around nine weeks preferably no later than twelve weeks, they imprint themselves on you very quickly although they never forget their breeder.
		Your Azawakh breeder should be on hand for the whole of your Azawakhs life to help you and advise you on the breed, and if they are prepared to take your Azawakh back if you are unable to keep it for any reason.

		Azawakhs are sensitive to the cold but do well in cold climates as long as they wear a coat outside.
		Azawakhs that are kept as pets should have regular opportunities to run free on open ground as well as have long, brisk walks, preferably at the same time every day.
		As a hyena or other night predators approaches, the first Azawakh to see it jumps down and is quickly joined by the others; they form a pack and chase away or kill the intruder.

		Azawakh skull (Beliregion, Westafrica), strong teeth and well-developed lower jaw are part of the "survival equipment" in the native country of the Azawakh.
		There is the serious development of the so called "bottle neck effect" to be witnessed where we went from the initial wide genetic range of the Azawakh imports out of colonial Africa to a situation which is not correctable by the dramatic narrowing of the genetic material of the current French breeding.
		Due to the incorporation of Azawakh's from France and imports from Africa, the German breeding seems to be much safer and increasing since the 1990's.

	Ancestors of the Caravan Hound
		This ancient hound resembles today's Sloughi, Saluki, Azawakh and smooth Afghan, and it is impossible without any genetic study to know whether it was a breed of its own, whether it was identical to one of these 4 breeds, or whether it was the ancestor of all lop-eared Sighthounds.
		For example, the Azawakh's natural beauty is austere, angular and architectural, contrasting the arabesque loveliness of the Saluki or the rather somber dignity of the Sloughi.
		The Azawakh are extremely alert and intelligent but their instinctive reactions to stimuli often underscore the reality of an aboriginal temperament.

		Undeniably, Azawakh is not a good breed to somebody who has never had a dog before.
		It might be easier, though, to these who had or currently have a sighthound, cat lovers, "northern" breeds of dogs' enthusiasts, or the fanciers of the Basenji breed.
		Azawakhs have become a nuisance to those who bought them without the necessary preparation and a bit of imagination.

		More specifically, the Sloughi and the Azawakh, both African Sighthounds, are the only Sighthound breeds to date in which an additional allele B was found on the Glucose-Phosphate-Isomerase (GPI) locus.
		The expression of the Azawakh's almond-shaped eyes is intense and somewhat feral, the expression of the Saluki is thoughtful and alert, the expression of the Afghan hound is alert, dignified and sometimes haughty.
