Summary
About Airedale Terrier
The Airedale Terrier is the largest terrier, an athletic, wiry‑coated dog that sheds little but needs regular grooming. Bright, independent and energetic, it needs varied training and 1.5–2 hours of daily exercise. Loyal, playful and watchful, it makes a versatile family and working companion.
About Borzoi
The Borzoi is a tall, elegant Russian sighthound with a flowing, wavy coat and long, narrow head. Calm, sensitive, and catlike indoors, it is capable of sudden high-speed sprints outside and has a strong chase instinct, needing gentle training, socialisation, and secure exercise areas.
