jeemes 4,483 Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) I was looking at some Salukis on youtube in the middle east racing. They were very impressive but what struck me (knowing nothing about them) was they all looked very short haired and non of the feathering you usually see. Is that because they shave them because of heat or are they a different strain? I think some were pure and some had Greyhound in. Edited May 19, 2015 by jeemes 1 Quote Link to post
desertbred 5,490 Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) Correct feathered and smooth I would be a bit wary of wooly coated though Edited May 19, 2015 by desertbred Quote Link to post
shaaark 10,743 Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 Think even the pures come smooth and feathered and wooly, I'm sure some daywalker will correct me tho Lol daywalker. I don't know too much about pures, but I'm only aware of smooth and feathered. Think the woolly ones , are the ones over here that have beddy, norfolk etc in their breeding 1 Quote Link to post

desertbred 5,490 Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) I have them to match my head,some have feathered to match their Rod Stewart haircuts and some have wooly dogs to match their Afros (usually the Southern lads ) Edited May 19, 2015 by desertbred Quote Link to post
