Brief History: The Saluki, royal dog of Egypt, is perhaps the oldest known breed of domesticated dog, identified by some historians as "a distinct breed and type as long ago as 329 B.C. when Alexander the great invaded India." The Arabs were the first to breed the Saluki, but they date back to the time of the ancient Egyptian Pharaohs. Named after the ancient city of Saluki, they were traditionally thought of as the "sacred gift of Allah". Salukis were widespread and appeared in Egypt where they were held in such great esteem that its body was often mummified like the bodies of the Pharaohs themselves. Today numerous specimens have been found in tombs in the upper Nile region.

What to do if mom stops feeding puppies to early?
My vet recommend the Royal Canin food products. They have food types based the size your dog will be. My puppy is a large-breed dog so we gave her the MAXI Babydog 30 food which is for large-breed dogs right after they are weened until they are 5 months old. It's made especially for little puppies. They also have a generic puppy food. As far as how much food to give them, read the directions on the back of the food bag. But most baby dogs eat 2 cups of food twice a day since they are growing so much. However, if your dog is a small-breed dog they may need to eat less. After the babydog food, we gave her the large breed puppy food until she was 15 months old. Now she's just on the large breed dog food. Royal Canin as has small and medium breed food too.
