Salukis form deep bonds with their families and enjoy quiet affection, but they prefer it on their own terms. They are gentle and sensitive, though not overly clingy or cuddly.

Cuddle: 5 / 10

Salukis are calm and independent, making them less prone to severe separation anxiety. However, they are sensitive and form strong bonds with their families, so they shouldn't be left alone for excessively long periods.
