ARABIAN SALUKI CLUB
The Arabian Saluki Club (ASC) is the national breed club for Salukis within the Kynological Federation of Emirates. The ASC promotes the showing, responsible breeding, obedience training and competition, lure coursing and versatility of the Saluki breed.
The Saluki is a medium-to-large-sized sighthound, combining elegance and athleticism with a friendly, amiable disposition. They are highly intelligent. In temperament, the Saluki is very affectionate and gentle, but is capable of great intensity during sporting events. Originating in Middle East, the first Saluki was registered in United Arab Emurates by the Kynological Federation of Emirates in 2005.
The ASC unites people interested in breeding and competition, and improving and preserving the health and original character of the breed for the purposes of showing, racing, coursing, obedience and pet ownership. It is also responsible for promoting good sportsmanship at events that are held under its auspices.
Here you can learn about Salukis as both companions and competition dogs, and about the breed's history, temperament traits, and overall health and care. You can also learn more about Saluki activities and upcoming events, and about our club, with resources to connect with breeders and fellow Saluki fanciers.
