Shop or Adopt a Saluki: Make the Right Choice!
Are Salukis good apartment dogs?
Yes, but they need to go out for daily sprints and walks to be happy.
Are they prone to separation anxiety?
Yes, they will get destructive if they are left alone for long periods of time.
Do Salukis shed excessively?
No, they’re light shedders and need minimal grooming.
Can Salukis live with cats?
Possibly, if raised together. But due to their strong prey drive, they are to be supervised at all times.
