Why is this dog so goofy looking? Is something wrong with it?
And don't tell me it's just a greyhound, I've owned greyhounds, they generally look more... proportioned than this.
Looks like the photo just caught it in an odd stance. Walking backwards?
It's an azawakh. Google the breed!

I think they look pretty cool! They're also bred for protection which is not that typical for sighthounds.
These dogs are so cool. They look like anorexic horses
Somebody feed them

Well that makes sense, I'd be pretty spooked too if a skeledog came running at me

I think it's the angle. It makes its neck look too short.

Interesting you said the'yre bred for that. Looks like they'd get one cut and get really damaged.

They are a very interesting breed and apparently very healthy. I know wikipedia isn't the best of sources but you can look up more info about them other places, but here's some general info https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azawakh

Also, maybe I should have been clearer on thh protection part, but they're bred for protection of livestock. Still, different than most sighthounds.
Are they bred to look like third world children?
I understand that having a slim/lean dog built for speed is one thing but goddamn they are scary spooky skeletons wrapped in dog flesh

Right? If a black one came running at ne in the dark I'd piss my pants thinking I was in resident evil or some shit

They also can work independently for their job, while most other sighthounds will just take the fuck off.

Their muscles are flat, rather than rounded and they have thin skin. With their skeletal structure, adding too much weight to them will fuck them up. They're a pretty interesting breed with their history. Very few were allowed to live due to the lack of resources of caring for many dogs, so they would pick one out of a litter that they deemed to be the fittest and kill the rest.
On top of this, they are pretty unique for their environment in which they can run at high speeds in very hot temperatures. Here's a fun read of their history if anyone is interested.

Not a dog I'd want myself. I could just imagine how many people would place in calls about starving my dog.
I'd be too afraid people would judge me as a bad owner thinking I was starving my dog.

pretty sure that's a horse
