Alright, so picture this: a long, lean, runway-ready dog with a vibe that’s equal parts mysterious Russian aristocrat and wild wolf chaser—yes, I’m talking about the Borzoi. It totally looks like it walked off a vintage movie set, yet deep down, it's got that fierce hunter spark. It's unpredictable as your favorite indie film plot twist.

What To Expect When Caring For a Russian canine greyhound
Keeping a Borzoi in tip-top shape isn’t rocket science, but it’s no autopilot either. You gotta brush that medium hair a few times a week—yeah, it gets tangled if you slack off. And these big cuties need their daily dose of exercise, whether it’s a brisk walk or a wild run. A relaxed stroll sometimes turns into a speed demon dash, so be ready for those unexpected sprint sessions.
They’re generally robust but keep an eye on a few things: bloat (yep, that scary tummy twist), heart issues, and that weird reaction to anesthesia. I mean, every dog has its quirks, right? Feed them small, frequent meals to dodge bloat and don’t skip those vet checkups. It’s all about catching problems early so your furry friend can keep strutting without a hitch.
