One of the rarest terrier breeds, developed by a single breeder through a specific breeding program in Czechoslovakia.
Despite their large size, Borzois were historically allowed to sleep in Russian nobles' bedrooms as bed warmers.
Developed in Czechoslovakia during the 1940s by crossing Scottish and Sealyham Terriers, bred specifically for hunting in the rocky terrain of Bohemia to pursue small game.
Russian aristocrats bred these hounds during the 16th century for hunting wolves and other game across vast open terrain. Their speed and sight-hunting abilities were prized among nobility.
Requires professional grooming every 6-8 weeks. Needs regular exercise and mental stimulation. Watch for potential terrier-specific health issues and maintain dental care.
Requires secure fencing due to prey drive and speed. Weekly grooming sessions needed for coat maintenance. Exercise must be controlled during growth to protect joints.
