Very typical asil Saluqi; similar to what one sees with the bedouin of our Judean Desert today.

… Par ailleurs, étant donné que j’ai des questions d’ordre général, je souhaiterais les poser dans la bonne section. N’hésitez pas à détailler car je ne suis pas du tout anglophone.

Désolé pour ce “Hors Sujet”

glad you brought up that topic Tzviah. Can you tell us more about the concept of “asil” in saluqi breeding as you understand it? What is a non-asil saluqi? It would be interesting to make a comparison with the horses.

Uh-Oh….asil horses, asil salukis…why do I get the feeling that sooner or later I will wind up with an asil camel in my back yard?
