Spotlight Breed: Afador 

Welcome to our Spotlight Breed article of the week. This is where we feature a one-of-a-kind dog breed from around the globe! We are excited to spotlight the Afador today. This breed is not often talked about due to its rare presence, but there is so much that this breed is known for! The Afador is an affectionate dog breed which can make an excellent pet for families with kids. Before you consider adopting this high-spirited and incredibly protected hound dog, you should know a little more about their personality and needs. Therefore, you will find this article helpful!

First, let’s talk about the history of the Afador. It is a crossbreed of an Afghan Hound and a Labrador Retriever that originated in Alaska. One interesting fact is that these dogs are still being focused on by breeders as they make the perfect blend of an intelligent dog breed and gentle temperament for the perfect family dog. This breed is known for their hound-like nature. They are also excitable, playful, and friendly. They absolutely love to be around their immediate family and other dogs! They can make a great family guard dog as they are not fond of strangers.

Because the Afador is a mixed breed, they have a few needs from their owner. They are active by nature, so they will need a good diet that supplements their daily energy expenditure. On the other hand, they need time to burn off all their playful energy in a way that is safe and healthy. This can be in the form of a daily walk or a trip to an off-leash park. Be aware of the wanderlust potential of the Afador. They may take off and try to get something that catches their attention!

There are some additional facts that you should know about the breed. Most importantly, they are not suited for small house or apartment living. Their energy levels are naturally too high for them to be confined to small spaces. This will lead to destruction! Another thing is that Afadors thrive well in cooler climates rather than warm and dry climates. This is mostly due to their thick and fuzzy fur coats.

Are you looking for an intelligent dog breed that will keep you on your toes? If so, the Afador may be for you! We will leave you with our favorite quote about the breed: “No matter how little money and how few possessions you own, having an Afador makes you rich.”
