Adopt an Africanis!
It is now recognised that the scrawny, long-legged and golden coated township dog is a distinct breed, one that evolved without purposeful domestication, but through the process of natural selection. These dogs lived alongside Bantu-speaking tribes, who brought the dogs down from North Africa in their slow southward migration. Those who adopt an Africanis will be rewarded with a highly intelligent, loyal, well-balanced and playful dog – free of the inherited diseases associated with many other breeds.
Africanis are now amongst the commonest dog taken in by the various animal welfare organisations in South Africa – so why not adopt one of these wonderful indigenous dogs in favour of a domesticated breed animal.

For more information about this fascinating animal, see the website of the Africanis Society of South Africa : http://www.africanis.co.za/africanis-society.htm AND : http://www.southafrica.info/features/africanis.htm
