In short. Sighthounds are elegant and athletic dogs bred for speed and visual tracking. They rely on sight rather than scent to pursue moving targets. These breeds are often calm and gentle at home, despite their incredible speed outdoors. They tend to be independent but quietly affectionate. Many enjoy short bursts of intense activity followed by long periods of rest. Their build and temperament make them unique among dog groups. Training requires patience and understanding of their instincts. With the right balance, they are graceful, peaceful, and deeply loyal companions.
