The event is organised by the Abu Dhabi International Hunting and Equestrian Exhibition (Adihex) and the Arabian Saluki Centre.
The hounds will be separated into four categories, al hoss (smooth and short haired) and aryash (feathery and long haired) and male and female.
Among factors considered by judges will be lineage, bearing and appearance – including the shape of the head.
Judges will also consider a dog’s temperament, its tracking and hunting skills and its responses to instructions.
Salukis have played an important part in Arabian Peninsula hunting heritage for more than 7,000 years. The breed is renowned for its endurance, intelligence and loyalty.
