Silken Windhound

The Silken Windhound is an affectionate, playful, and eager-to-please dog breed. They’re easily trained and love their families, including those with small children and pets. In fact, their affectionate nature makes them poor watchdogs. That’s because they are likely to react to strangers with warm greetings instead of barks or growls.

As a relatively new breed, the Silken Windhound is not recognized by the American Kennel Club; although, it was recognized by the United Kennel Club in 2011 and appears in shows and competitions around the world.
