What is a Sloughi and Why Should We Care?

Well, I guess 187 breeds just wasn't enough! Besides, I think it's a pretty cute guy. Got a greyhound thing goin' there. And it has a cool name, right up there will Saluki and Welsh Corgi in my book!

The American Kennel Club has welcomed a hairless terrier and an ancient North African hound into breeds that will be recognized by the club. The American hairless terrier and sloughi (pictured and pronounced sloo-ghee) can now compete in most shows American Kennel Club shows. Not this year for the big Westminster Kennel Club show in New York, though. They have to wait another year for that one.  DB
