At the Abu Dhabi International Hunting and Equestrian Exhibition, Arabian salukis displayed their exceptional speed and endurance. These slender, graceful sighthounds, known for their high-speed chase instinct, are one of the fastest dog breeds in the world. Abdeljalal Smina, a Moroccan dog trainer, emphasized that salukis were bred to run and hunt from the moment they are born.
The exhibition, which was the largest to date, highlighted the UAE's rich heritage in hunting, equestrianism, and cultural traditions. The Arabian Saluki Centre, the first facility of its kind in the Middle East, aims to preserve pure Arabian bloodlines and promote the breed's legacy. The Emirates Falconers' Club has also announced the inaugural Arabian Saluki Championship, adding a new dimension to the breed's significance.
