I love my Saluki. He has been with us for nearly 10 years. He's gentle, aloof and has two speeds: zoomies and lounge lizard. He is excellent with small children and other dogs - even small dogs like Pomeranians and Maltese. He travels well, is always polite and actually likes meeting people. He came to us as a 14 week old puppy, and I had to have an interview with the breeder to be approved to own him. We already had an other dog, a German Wirehaired Pointer, who taught our Saluki housetraining and doggy/human etiquette. In all, I would definitely have another Saluki -he's more like a cat than a dog and is such wonderful being.

Got my first Afghan in 1981... haven't been without one since. However Salukis are gorgeous, too!

[armondtravis]

I have had an Afghan but have had eight saluki’s. I have never had a bad saluki they are loyal and a wonderful dog I wouldn’t have any other breed

[mirjanahecimovic]

How about both. Have had saluki for 30 years and now have my first afghan together with my elderly saluki. Love both breeds even though afghans are more high maintenence

[maddiehughes]

My neighbor has a few afghan hounds and we see their heads poking over the wall between our houses 😂:)

My dad always told me an Afghan Hound would recognize an Afghan.

I grew up with Salukis and so did my brothers and Salukis got along well with us without any problems. Dont know where you got that Salukis are bad with toddlers

[belindahutchings]

I have both breeds, and both are delightful. My Afghan Hound is a total cool customer. Loves to sleep in my lap, bounces around like Tigger! Very loving dog. My Salukis (I have 4) are all very different. But they can be very intense in their attachment to people. My favorite part of the day is when my tiny, 2 year old Saluki girl and my big Afghan boy run circuits around the dog yard, taking turns being "the rabbit."

The final of the video with the Afghan messing around in the sink is very funny. 😀

Saluki! Very interesting breed of dog!

I love Afghan Hounds! Our family had five over the years. They’re terrible thieves, but then that’s one of the things they were bred to do.

You have the saluki wrong.

They need an hour of hard running a day until they're 4. Walk one around the block, they'll hate you. They need a big field, and good running.

They're amazing with kids. From babies to toddlers, to infants, they LOVE kids gentler than a greyhound and more likely to tolerate being clambered on.

They will chase anything. For miles. These are the marathon runners of the dog world. Tired is a curse word.

How about actually spending time with some, before comparing? You've done a beautiful FAMILY dog a grave injustice.

I have two Afghan hound they are so affectionate good guard dogs and good fun especially on the beach my number one dog❤❤

[dguarino]

Both are glamorous and beautiful but there is a lot more maintenance with the Afghan hound. Also they need always to be on a long lead to prevent escape.

[RCSTILE]

I've owned five afghans and it is a shame all of these documentaries can't get past the grooming aspect of the breed. They are no harder to care for than any other long haired breed. Unfortunately their beauty is the reason why most people buy them and because of the grooming requirements they never get to appreciate what a glorious beastie these goof balls are.. I realized this six months into my first experience with a hound. I.ve always joked that when you're dealing with an afghan, you have to accept the fact that half of the time when you look into their eyes you can see the lights are on but there is nobody home.

I will choose both Afghan hounds and saluki So Gorgeous.

My best dog breed Afghan Hounds 🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫❤❤❤❤❤❤

[veronica]

I have a saluki and i love the breed 🥰🥰

[ianbromley]

Having had Salukis for 20yrs, I can state, categorically, they need to run- it’s what they were bred for- walk round the block will only result in a very unhappy and destructive dog.

Saluki are the long distance runners of the sighthounds - their speed and stamina is beyond impressive.

They need to run for good mental health.

Many of the clips in this video are from other makers video- it’s time YT put a stop to both plagiarism and poor quality content.

I have a 5 1/2 Afghan that is a huge part of my life ❤
