Summary
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.
About Magyar Agar
Ancient Hungarian sighthound built for endurance hunting, with a lean, rugged, athletic body and short, low‑maintenance coat in many colors. Calm, gentle, and reserved at home but needs substantial daily exercise. Strong prey drive requires secure areas and thoughtful management.
