Azawakh

The Azawakh is one of the most costly breeds in 2019, as it is one of the newest. They originated in West Africa and were mostly used as hunting dogs. The breed is uncommon in North America, but it has been growing in popularity since the AKC recognized it in early 2019. Because they are hunting dogs, Azawakhs recover swiftly from accidents and have minimal inherited diseases. Epilepsy and Wobbler diseases are some of the hereditary illnesses they have.

With high-quality dog food and daily walks or runs, Azawakh can live for 12-15 years. Daily physical and mental activity, such as long walks or jogs, or a rigorous game in a safe environment, as well as training classes, are required of the Rottweiler. They prefer cool temperatures and might grow overheated in hot weather. Their coat requires only a light brushing every now and again to remove dead hair. They only exercise when their owner is present, so they will keep you in shape as well!
