Elegance in motion, the Borzoi looks like a flowing, sleek, blur when chasing its quarry. It hunts by sight rather than smell, and is bred to be as fast as possible over open terrain. Their inverted S shape is perfectly indicative of their Greyhound heritage. Underneath their beautifully long and silky coat is a lithe frame, deep chest, and slim waist. Standing almost 28 inches, they are a sight to behold.
