    Awww!! Riley is quite the cutie! I believe the breed in pronounced as it is spelled, (sa-luk-ee). I'm so glad your mom adopted him! I believe Salukis sare naturally thin, kind of like Greyhounds. Sorry I don't have any advice on the food... maybe she could ask the vet? I'm not sure, though..... some dogs are just picky eaters.

    True, he may be a little skinny, but I think he looks great! Saulki's (Sa-luke-ee) are naturaly thin and lean, so he looks like he should!
    Those pictures are great! He sure looks like a Happy boy!!


    As for the food, if he were mine I would leave food in his bowl at all times.
    Let him get hungry, and he'll eat when he realizes that he's not going to get people food!

    He's beautiful. Definitely a sighthound mix. I wonder if he has ibizan hound, his face makes me think of ibizan more than saluki.

    But then mixes can always look so unique. I don't think he looks too thin really, just sighthoundish. They often look somewhat slender and ribby. I suspect as he settles he'll be more interested in his food too. Hope we get to see more of him, he's really a total cutie!

    Hi, Riley! I really like the second picture in the first post - you look so happy and ready for fun! Welcome!

    Edited to say: What breed is Riley? I have no idea, but he's very handsome!

    He's gorgeous! I see sighthound too, maybe Ibizian like K9Soul said. Congratulations to you and your mom.
