4. Borzoi
The Borzoi, once a prized hunting dog for Russian nobility, is known for its elegant, graceful movement. After being imported to America and England during the Revolution, the breed was saved from extinction. Borzois are tall, reaching up to thirty-two inches at the shoulder, and are famous for their speed and refined movement. Their silky coat requires regular grooming. Despite their size, Borzois are calm and well-behaved indoors, making them suitable for apartments if exercised adequately. They have strong hunting instincts, so early socialization and training are important. Their gentle and affectionate nature makes them wonderful companions for those who appreciate their unique combination of beauty and strength.
