Comments:Hi,
Great site one of the first Saluki sites I visited before I got my first Saluki.

Check out my Saluki Forum 'Saluki Preservation' if you are interested in coursing and hunting with Salukis or their relatives or simply want to preserve that physical ability.

I am from Brazil and I "try" to breed Saluki here,but it is not an easy task.Nobody knows anything about this wonderful dog,there are few breeders,so ,for those who love and care about this breed,breeding is a difficult decision.
Also ,I cannot find reliable information about Salukis here and even in the Web,we have to take care about the sources.
Congratulations!!!!Your site is wonderful!!!!!!!!!!
I am always trying to inform people here in Brazil about Saluki,and sites like this give me a good help!!!!
sincerely yours,

Comments:I lost my tri-color (Black,tan,white) Saluki in March of
1986. To this day, I miss him very much. He was more
human than any dog I have ever come across. He was only 4
years old when he died......check out your kennel before
you purchase a Saluki and avoid the pain of losing one too
early. HE WAS A GEM and is still greatly missed.

Comments:The most beautiful of dogs! Especially the tri color. I've been interested in Salukis for many years; have always loved their grace and dignity. Have met a very few. Someday would like to adopt one but am researching first. Sigh, a major yard fencing project is required to protect from chasing deer, elk, an occasional cougar, squirrels, raccoons, skunks, chipmunks, weasels, rabbits, you name it! Many thanks for your site, especially the history.

Comments:I recently took a position at a University whose mascot is
the Saluki. I find the dog to be beautiful and graceful,
which is not the typical sentiment. I have actually had
people scold me because our mascots were underfed. However,
that type of reaction comes from those not attending the
University. The faculty, staff and students of SIU love
being a "DAWG."

Questions regarding the breed come up frequently when I am
talking to parents and new students so I am trying to
educate myself as much as possible about the Saluki Dog. I
very much appreciate the information on this site
pertaining to the history and origin of the breed.

Comments:I am fortunate to have a Saluki as one of my best friends.

Her name is Omens Selah D'Galaxsea.She's almost 5 & has
been living with me since she was a 3 mo. puppy.She is not
my first sighthnd. I had an Ibizan before Selah. I also
adopted a GPA Greyhound 9 mo. ago so I guess you could say
I'm sold on the gazehounds & will be happy when AKC
recognizes them as a separate group.

The activity we enjoy most is lure coursing. Selah needs 29
more pts. for her LCM & Cody has 38 pts(not bad for 2
trials)to be a FC.

I'm glad you have this web page & will visit again.
Thanks for "listening."

Comments:We got our boy Woody from the National Canine Defence
League in 1996 when he was 10 months old. Since Day one
he's been perfect and everything you describe on your page
regarding temprement is true of Woody even though he's a
saluki cross. He would rather run after a flying bird than
anything on the ground,he also never barks only howls! and
he has the whole settee and our bed to himself. He gets
lots of comments on his lovely soft coat even when he needs
a bath and he loves everyone as long as they've got
food!!!.If we're going shopping and have to leave him in
doors he lets us know how fed up he is by not even looking
at us. Everything about him is brilliant and I wouldn't
swap him for the world.
Your web site is interesting as we'd never heard of the
breed before we got him.

Comments:I came across your homepage looking for stuff about nomadic
people, and I realised your mistake on the fact that
Salukis are considered Holy, I say that out of knowledge. I
am a Muslim and an Arab, I come from a family where my
grandparents loved hunting. Salukis were used in hunting,
which is true. All dogs are the same to us, each is special
in its own way. And everything is a gift from Allah, which
are all God's creations. When I was young, we had a lovely
pet dog, but we wouldn't let it in the house. And I come
from a very religious family. The reason is that we
consider them unclean and we cannot pray with them around.
In Islam, we are allowed to have dogs for hunting (not only
Salukis) as well as guarding.
Thank You, I hope this piece of info. sheds a new light.

Comments:This entry is in memory of Sattam. He lived to be 18 years
old. He died in 1997. He was known as a "desert saluki".
His tail curled upward. In his prime, his favorite hobby
was running away so he could break the hearts of others who
would feed him hamburgers until I could arrive to retrieve
him. In his prime his other hobby was fighting other dogs.
In his golden years he loved to sleep on the bed that my
mother-in-law made for him. His eye brows were so
expressive. His vocabulary consisted of a multiple note
rrrrrrrrrrrrr when he wanted to get your attention. He
never barked, unless there was a hot air balloon overhead.
He weighed 65 pounds. Thanks for a site of information
about his breed.

Well done.

I would like to have your e.mail and other info in case we
decide to go for a Saluki. We have rescued a Greyhound and
we are in love with him. In a year time we may be ready to
preferably rescue (but may consider buying, the problem is
that there are so many unwanted dogs there!) another
sighthound and it may be an opportunity to check with you
about puppies fo sale or adults that need to be rescued.
