Are Borzoi good pets?

Yes, Borzoi are excellent pets for individuals or families who understand and appreciate their unique needs and characteristics. These large dogs have a gentle and affectionate nature, graceful appearance, and quiet demeanor. Borzoi are intelligent but can be independent and somewhat stubborn, so training requires consistency. They can be sensitive and might not respond well to harsh training methods. Due to their hunting background, Borzoi may have a strong prey drive and might not be suitable for households with small pets unless introduced and supervised carefully.
