Native from Egypt, the Saluki is an incredible dog that can easily become a great companion. This dog is a majestic hound that thanks to its narrow, thin and lightweight body as well as to its long and strong legs can run extremely fast and obtain the best results. Of course, in order to become a wonderful runner and hunter, the Saluki needs to be fed properly and this is why learning about Saluki Food is always recommendable.
The Saluki is a truly energetic and lively dog that has been made to run, to jump and to enjoy a permanently active life. The Saluki therefore requires a high in protein diet which is composed mostly of high quality meat (especially beef but also chicken, turkey, poultry, pork and others). This high protein diet will assure your Saluki with a good amount of energy to use through the entire day. It will also keep your dog away from any possible disease since the stronger your dog is, the better it will fight viruses.
Feeding your Saluki should never be based on grains such as corn or wheat. These products are obviously cheaper than meat but definitely not as healthy as meat. They are hard to digest and many Salukis have suffered digestive problems due to diets based on grains. You will need to complete your Saluki diet with other Foods such as dairy (but not milk), eggs and vegetables.
