Oz a wok

Today I wanted to tell you about a relative of mine. The Azawakh (pronounced Oz-a-wok) is an ancient sight-hound originally used by Central African Tuareg and other nomadic tribes for hunting, companionship and protection. They are both loyal and independent. The most striking feature are the long legs, which are usually longer than the body. This is one of the rarest breeds of dogs; only introduced outside of Africa in the 1970's. Very cool looking dog, wouldn't you say?
