Trainability

The Sloughi is a highly intelligent dog, but they can be stubborn which is why they are best handled and trained by people who understand the particular needs of such a high energy sight hound. In the right hands and with the right amount of socialisation, Sloughis are ready and willing to learn as long as their training remains consistent and always fair so that dogs understand what is expected of them.

Their training has to start as early as possible and because these hounds are so sensitive to voice, care has to be taken as to how their handled and trained. They do not respond well to any sort of harsh correction which could end up making a dog a lot more reserved and timid. However, they do respond well to positive reinforcement training. It’s important to bear in mind that because they boast such high prey drives, even the best trained Sloughi might choose to ignore a "recall" command if they spot something more interesting in the distance.
