I am a first time owner to a borzoi and am quite happy. I have had a few breeds in the past but the borzoi is my favorite. So I'm stuck on The BORZOI:)
I owned a Borzoi in the mid 70s to mid 80s. Her name was Peaches. She was born in Virginia and was the sweetest dog I even had. She was very intelligent. I don't remember her barking. I had rules to follow when I got her. Main rule: never tap her on the head, and never grab her neck. She also had a bucket placed about shoulder high to eat out of - one like a horse because it was easier for her to eat. Also I lived out on a cotton farm, she loved to run and jump the rows of cotton like huddles. She jumped like a cat - straight up. She also didn't like steps, to even step up on a curb was something she was afraid of. So lifting her up or down and placing her in a car was always done.
😂Vrozhat’s Czaritsa is long gone to a happy snow covered happy hunting range so now I live in virginia with a MinPin. If I had to live in Maine I’d get another borzoi but Roanoke valley is much nicer🤗
