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 Old Danish Pointing Dog
The Old Danish Pointing Dog is a sturdy, medium-sized Danish gundog with a white coat and brown patches. Calm and people-oriented, it hunts steadily at close range yet relaxes well at home. Sensitive but willing to cooperate, it needs gentle training, ample exercise, and regular health checks.
