About
The Sloughi is a sighthound that has lived in North Africa for centuries, with most of the population found in Morocco today, the country responsible for its standard. Very lean and elegant, it exists only in a short-haired variety, in shades from light sand to red sand. Noble and reserved yet deeply attached to its master, it can hunt tirelessly but is equally content relaxing at home, needing regular safe sprinting opportunities and protection from cold.
