Afghan Hounds
Afghan Hounds (50-60 pounds) are elegant, independent, and aloof, best for experienced owners. They’re gentle with kids when socialized but may be reserved, better for older children. High energy demands 1-2 hours daily of running; their long, silky coat requires frequent grooming.
Feed 2-3 cups daily of Royal Canin Medium Breed Adult Dry Dog Food, with 25% protein to support their lean build. Monitor portions to avoid weight gain. Primarily outdoor dogs, they need secure yards and thrive in cooler climates, not apartments or hot regions.
Training curbs their aloofness. Ideal for active owners with time for grooming, Afghan Hounds aren’t suited for first-timers or low-energy lifestyles.
