The sleek and graceful Saluki has hunted with mankind for thousands of years.

Because the history of this ancient sighthound reaches back long before the invention of breed clubs and written breeding records, the breed’s origin is veiled in mystery.

The Saluki is one of the oldest known breeds of dog.

There is robust archaeological evidence of the Saluki that dates back at least 5,000 years.

Images of slender dogs with feathered ears, tails, and legs have been found on various artifacts in the Middle East, such as tomb paintings and mosaic sculptures.
