My mother had two of these, and one day they managed to skip out the door and run away. They're a bit goofy, modest and just so chilled out, but after running away they came back with their faces covered in blood. Turns out they ripped the neighbor's rabbits apart. Funny how a cute dog like that turn into what's also called a Russian Wolf Hound.

Borzois have the most hilarious derpy facial expressions at all times - they look quite friendly and very confused at the same time! Channing is a champion!
We had the same grey come into our lives not once but twice. The second time was to stay. Unfortunately, we had to put her down about 18 months ago. We miss her SO much!
I have to say, after seeing so many Huskies melt down in hysterics in your shop, it's a relief to see huge and potentially dangerous beasts like Channing turn out to be so calm and chill.
I love these dogs so much because they kinda look as if you owe them money and they're too polite to directly ask about it- but will give you a little stink eye the whole time 😂

Finally! A giant anteater! I absolutely love the Borzoi. Channing and his owners are clearly worthy of so many awards! You're also amazing at your job and you did such great work on him! Borzoi are hilarious and adorable and I've wanted one as soon as I saw one. What a beautiful animal!

When I lived in London England ,while shopping I followed a woman to the cash register and commented on her huge purchase of dog food . She said she bred Borzois , and would I like to see them .Delighted , I helped her carry her shopping home . She lived in a small basement flat with her husband and 9 Borzois !!An incredible sight let me tell you . I have never forgotten it . Hardly an inch of space not covered by a Borzoi .
Борзым необходим простор для бега...вероятно их вывозили на длительные прогулки? Мой борзой любил возлечь на кровать и вылизать чашку недопитого кофе....
I grew up with a borzoi as the family dog, and it cannot be understated how sweet and gentle with people they are. He was with us from when I was barely one year old, to when I was 14, when he passed from old age. We'd brush and bathe him ourselves, outside in the yard, and after you'd swear it had snowed, he'd shed so much white fur. He'd also catch birds out of the air and then be very confused about it.
He probably did do it for you. How did you avoid bloat - I gather they’re particularly sensitive to that? And they apparently prefer training you…but apparently that’s not too difficult to correct?
@@nathanwilliams2152 Since I was so young when he was a puppy, my mom took care of training. As for health, he had a diet and lots of space to run around in. He was extremely healthy until the end of his life, when arthritis made things difficult for him.
I would've made a "why the long face?" joke because most dogs are scared of groomings but this pupper just looks so happy, especially with their ribbons!
He just naturally has an air of aristocracy and prominence about his personality! He also seems like a really fun dog to chase tennis balls or frisbees with in the backyard too! And.. he is quite valuable as far as donating his DNA as well! I would imagine his puppies are pretty pricey, and rightfully so! He’s a royal Prince!
I got so excited when I saw the Borzoi, one of my favourite dogs. I’ve only had the privilege of meeting one once on my life and they’re more stunning in person. Edit: you’re absolutely correct too, about their size, this was at a hotel I met one and it was able to lay its head on the counter at the front desk which was probably somewhere under 5 ft in height
@@faent-fr34k depending on where you live, rescues can be (realtively) available! Sighthound Underground somestimes has some, and National Borzoi Rescue Foundation (NBRF) had a few this year and has quite a few available recently/upcoming now that theyve been able to bring some rescues overseas from the areas around Ukraine! I'd also recommend speaking to breeders of borzois or similar breeds, as they're typically in-the-know on who has retired adults available as pets. I learned about my guy from a breeder who had a friend who was training a pup who had severe sun damage from being left outside during 2020. After introducing raw food and supplementary fruits/veggies on top of kibble. Sevi now has a silky thick coat and is a perfect guy!
Zois are usually pretty easy to groom! They shed a lot, but since the fur isn't as thick as with many other long haired breeds (like rough collies), it's easy to get all the way to the bottom. The long hair on the neck and the back of the back legs tend to tangle, so I'd recommend brushing those parts weekly to bi-weekly, but the rest of the fur isn't usually easy to tangle. I brush my boy properly only once a month (except for the mentioned neck and back legs I do at least twice a month) and he doesn't develop tangles in that time. Brushing him doesn't take long either.
@Tracer That's great info! Right now, we have a cat and a house rabbit, so a large sighthound won't fit in our family, but knowing they actually might be somewhat readily available in the US is exciting!! Someday, we hope to bring one of these magnificent creatures into our home.
As a greyhound mama, I was thrilled to see this notification and really enjoyed this video! He's gorgeous and his hair blowing in the wind as he runs is everything! I've been curious about borzois and now I think I need one!
Love borzois! I have a greyhound and he used to have a borzoi BFF! Your description of the breed and their 45 mph couch potato personality plus very sensitive soul is accurate! Thanks for featuring one of my favourite breeds!! ❤❤❤
We had some who came to our dog park for a while. So elegant and graceful. One time one of them ran through the hollow log and came out covered in rotten mud. She was so proud of herself. Her owner was absolutely mortified
What a gentle and cute boomerang boi! I have always admired borzois, they are so elegant and royal looking, yet very gentle and sweet in manner. Love his little tie at the end!
Small correction: According to our breed history from Russian and Ukraine, Borzoi descend from a "Saluki-type hound that was crossed with a native Russian breed" in order for them to survive the harsh Siberian winters. :) Our first breed standard was written in the mid-1600's, but unfortunately a lot of the records detailing pedigrees were lost during the fall of the last Czar. So we are still in the process of piecing the history of the Borzoi back together.
That sounds interesting. Would you recommend any works or texts about those early breed standards? I've always wondered why the usual history you find on the internet is so limited.
@@Lorrdd The information that has been gathered by breed historians (who are from all over the world, by the way) from both Russian and Ukrainian kennels about this breed far predates anything that's happening now. WE trust the information because of the evidence that has been gathered and verified.
Interesting fact: in Russian they're called "Борзая" - "Borzáya" in feminine gender. Because it's adjective (but now we often use it as a noun) addresses to words "breed" or "dog" which are feminine gender in Russian. And the "Borzoi" is a variation in masculine gender of this word and we don't use it. Actually we call every greyhound "Borzáya" - it's a translation of greyhound breed group in Russian. And specifically this long-hair breed in video called "Русская борзая" - Rússkaya Borzáya (literally Russian Greyhound).
I had the pleasure of watching over one of Sweden's most winning Borzoi bois once. He was soooo beautiful and such a dream dog. I always catch my breath when i see them and have such a profound love for these amazing dogs.
Thank you, Girl With The Dogs, for once again, teaching as you groom. I have Borzoi in the US, and you gave the best overview of the positives and the cautions with this breed. They are smart, elegant, graceful and sometimes goofy, but always beautiful inside and out.
Such a stunner! My first Borzoi was Dimitri, black with 4 white socks, a white tipped tail, and a blaze on his chest. He was huge and "thick" and lived to be 15. My second one, Madame Kovaleski (her AKC name - we called her Kova) was white with black spots. She was more petite and "narrow". They were both the most loving, loyal (and such sensitive) dogs I've ever had. I would love to have another and am on a list for a rescue...if it's meant to happen, it will❤ Thanks for stirring up amazing memories 😊💕
@@HensOnly sadly, no...most rescues are in the eastern states and meant for local rescue. I would drive to meet them, though if I find one that allows travel out of state.
@@HensOnly I'm in CA 😕 I do watch for them, though. Sometimes they allow out of area adoption. I have seen arrangements made for a group of people to drive the dog to certain points along the way, too. I also started to hem and haw because I have a cat. She's 19 and I'm giving her some peace and quiet in her twilight years 💕😽💕 I appreciate the info about the rescue in your area, though! I will look into them.👍
Borzois!!! My aunt used to show these and I grew up around them. Never were they mean, never did they bite. Even as a crazy kid, they would just put up with me or stick by my aunt when I was being annoying. These dogs are absolutely amazing and such wonderful family members.
I always knew how elegant this breed was, but I never knew how large they were! Thank you for showcasing such a beautiful dog today; it was really lovely to see him run in your yard with all that gorgeous hair!❤
There was one at our dogpark a few weeks ago. She was so much taller than a husky and dalmatian that were playing together, they looked like a terrier and a mini-husky. The owner said she was smaller than his male, who was being lazy that day. Gorgeous girl, was kinda fun that she was so elegantly playful with my Aussies, trying to herd her...first time they were ever outmatched.
Ohhhh my fluff, how can you not fall in love with him 😍 Every pupper should be loved and spoiled! God bless all the furbabies and those who love them 👑🙏💞✝️🐾🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯
You're a genius by the way, building this platform to a level where people want their fur family (and fur colleagues if they're working or show dogs) to be tended by you, and featured on your channel. Literally everybody wins, it's a wonderful thing, and it means you get to educate (and amuse) more people!
It is a high compliment to your skills that you are trusted with such a celebrity doggo. I raised two pedigree afghan hounds many years ago. I would adore befriending a pair of borzoi, so beautiful.
Beautiful Borzoi- I have a soft spot for those tall lanky hounds.. a bazillion years ago I learned how to walk hanging from the long silky fur of our boy Baron and our girl Dutchess.
Channing is stunning! Of course, he's a show dog! Look at that profile! and his physique Please don't think I'm being sarcastic -- I'm saying this very sincerely. Stay healthy, sweet pup! ❤ Love your commentary, Vanessa, and I hope everyone takes heed.
So glad to see a sighthound on your channel! We have an ex-racing greyhound. They make the most amazingly lazy family pets. While show dogs are treated amazingly well, greyhound racing needs to end. As my wife said to me earlier today "They are born for speed, but they are also born for sleep".
My neighbour in Bristol has a Borzoi. He is a beautiful boy, and he loves attention and be cuddled. He said that he had difficulty training him outside (as he’d get easily distracted) and that being a deep-chested dog, care has to be taken to avoid bloat. Yantar had an elevated feeder and was fed 4x small meals a day, and plenty of water
I have a retired Abyssinian show cat. Got him when he was 6. The joy of caring for an animal who is used to being handled is abundant. Channing is lovely.
So nice of you that you include small horses into your grooming appointments now.
Well, she’s groomed a duck and she’s groomed a pig. It was just a matter of time she’d bring in equines, too

Such a stunner! My first Borzoi was Dimitri, black with 4 white socks, a white tipped tail, and a blaze on his chest. He was huge and "thick" and lived to be 15.
My second one, Madame Kovaleski (her AKC name - we called her Kova) was white with black spots. She was more petite and "narrow".
They were both the most loving, loyal (and such sensitive) dogs I've ever had.
I would love to have another and am on a list for a rescue...if it's meant to happen, it will❤
Thanks for stirring up amazing memories 😊💕
Did you had the chance of adopting one yet? They are AWESOME!
@@HensOnly sadly, no...most rescues are in the eastern states and meant for local rescue. I would drive to meet them, though if I find one that allows travel out of state.
@@amyhendricks3627 What state are you from? I'm from IL. Oaklara Borzois near Chicago area, sometimes have adults for adoption.
@@HensOnly I'm in CA 😕 I do watch for them, though. Sometimes they allow out of area adoption. I have seen arrangements made for a group of people to drive the dog to certain points along the way, too.
I also started to hem and haw because I have a cat. She's 19 and I'm giving her some peace and quiet in her twilight years 💕😽💕
I appreciate the info about the rescue in your area, though! I will look into them.👍
He walks like a dignified gentleman.
What a beautiful dog, must of been such an honor to be able to groom such a champion.
"Leeetmeeedoitforyuuuu"
I just seen this clip, but I can't unhear the memes already
Like a true champion, he is so demure. Then when it’s time he lets his star shine!!! Thanks for introducing me to this breed and this awesome dog!
While I have only seen this breed of dog on televised dog shows, they are beautiful and majestic!
Borzois!!! My aunt used to show these and I grew up around them. Never were they mean, never did they bite. Even as a crazy kid, they would just put up with me or stick by my aunt when I was being annoying. These dogs are absolutely amazing and such wonderful family members.
He is the most noble, chill dog.
You can see into his soul with those lovely eyes.
I've got hair envy.
i've been watching you for over a year now and i never saw this video until now. my zoi Zephyr would have been an excellent model for your channel.
I once saw a clip of a borzoi trotting into a room and sniffing at a litter of puppies. She's so graceful in her movements, like a ballerina doggo.
His coat flows like water when he runs ~ awesome 🐾❤️🌸
The way I squealed when I realized it was a borzoi they are such lovable goofs and their noses are to die for
Ahh yes, the 40mph couch potato, so damn adorable!🥰
Greyhounds are the same way. Two options: sleep or full speed running.
Scottish Deerhounds are the same way.
@@DerrithWieman Yep, there are so scraggly and cute, but so lazy. 😂
@@324cmac Yep, oh I so want a Greyhound, they are some of the laziest lapdogs I've ever known. 🥺
What a beautiful boy! I can imagine the speed when they chase..
Thanks for doing a sighthound! Generally gentle, loving dogs.
Beautiful!! I fostered over 26 greyhounds straight off the track and I absolutely love their body stance. Borzois are just as beautiful 😍
Beautiful! I have enjoyed seeing two pet borzois at our local dog park. Gorgeous dogs. The elderly one recently passed and is greatly missed.
FINALLY A BORZOI VIDEO!
Edit: And wow, what a dignified long boy he is.
I really thought you said "a horse to be reckoned with" when U introduced Channing, and I loved it! He's beautiful. Have a great Christmas GWtD fam xo
he is absolutely precious!!! borzois are my most favorite breed they’re just so adorable and elegant
Elegant & noble....canine royalty
Very impressive! And you can tell that Channing is used to being pampered at the salon. He's so well behaved.
I love Borzois so much! They’re so pretty!
What a gorgeous dog and their owner must be so proud. You can tell he is very much loved. Thank you for sharing!
Borzoi look like if someone who was trying pottery for the first time and made a dog from memory. I mean it in the nicest most endearing way possible.
They are beautiful and majestic. The lightening speed is accurate. Had the privilege to know on in the 1980s...absolutely elegant.
How magnificent! First time I've seen more than still photo. The very definition of poetry in motion. Thank you and his owners for letting us see him!
Beautiful dog, love how his coat floats with him!!
Met one who was a working dog, wow ! Great attitude in these pooches !
I always knew how elegant this breed was, but I never knew how large they were! Thank you for showcasing such a beautiful dog today; it was really lovely to see him run in your yard with all that gorgeous hair!❤
There was one at our dogpark a few weeks ago. She was so much taller than a husky and dalmatian that were playing together, they looked like a terrier and a mini-husky. The owner said she was smaller than his male, who was being lazy that day. Gorgeous girl, was kinda fun that she was so elegantly playful with my Aussies, trying to herd her...first time they were ever outmatched.
Gorgeous boy 🥰 And the most perfectly behaved customer!
he looks like a cloud when he's prancing. what a majestic creature.
What a handsome boy! So glad he's a happy pupper 😊
Ohhhh my fluff, how can you not fall in love with him 😍
Every pupper should be loved and spoiled! God bless all the furbabies and those who love them 👑🙏💞✝️🐾🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯
You're a genius by the way, building this platform to a level where people want their fur family (and fur colleagues if they're working or show dogs) to be tended by you, and featured on your channel.
Literally everybody wins, it's a wonderful thing, and it means you get to educate (and amuse) more people!
didnt i do it for you? didnt i do it for you? kermie?
😂😂
was looking for this😭😂
😂
I click’d on this video with full intention of commenting the same thing.. 😂
“Girl with dogs: Showers” Borzoi Idontdooitfryouuuu
This is my all time favorite breed. Big, gentle snoots basically. I love them so much! Win the affection of a Borzoi and you’ve got it made.
It is a high compliment to your skills that you are trusted with such a celebrity doggo. I raised two pedigree afghan hounds many years ago. I would adore befriending a pair of borzoi, so beautiful.
I can see why she would be nervous! It's like being hired to detail a Ferrari.
Channing is stunning! His white almost glows it’s so bright. Just beautiful! ❤️
Beautiful Borzoi- I have a soft spot for those tall lanky hounds.. a bazillion years ago I learned how to walk hanging from the long silky fur of our boy Baron and our girl Dutchess.
These dogs are so beautiful that it made me cry.
HE IS GLORIOUS
Channing is stunning! Of course, he's a show dog! Look at that profile! and his physique Please don't think I'm being sarcastic -- I'm saying this very sincerely. Stay healthy, sweet pup! ❤ Love your commentary, Vanessa, and I hope everyone takes heed.
So glad to see a sighthound on your channel! We have an ex-racing greyhound. They make the most amazingly lazy family pets. While show dogs are treated amazingly well, greyhound racing needs to end.
As my wife said to me earlier today "They are born for speed, but they are also born for sleep".
He's a beautiful sweet boy. Thanks for sharing him with us!
I love Borzois ❤ My Mother bred them and they are so sweet and gentle. Very fun to watch them lure coursing! Thank you for such a fun channel 😊
My neighbour in Bristol has a Borzoi. He is a beautiful boy, and he loves attention and be cuddled. He said that he had difficulty training him outside (as he’d get easily distracted) and that being a deep-chested dog, care has to be taken to avoid bloat. Yantar had an elevated feeder and was fed 4x small meals a day, and plenty of water
Very jealous of your encounter with such a graceful creature, not gonna lie. Very jealous. I´ve bathed a Saluki, but never a Borzoi. Goals. ❤
I loved him more when his elegant ears perked up. What a gorgeous dog.
I have a retired Abyssinian show cat. Got him when he was 6. The joy of caring for an animal who is used to being handled is abundant. Channing is lovely.
i adore horse dogs and i am very happy to see not just any horse-dog, but a very well decorated one. good on you both to finally meet each other!
