I have been absolutely adoring larger/taller dogs for a long time now although I am not the tallest out there. Borzoi’s look so elegant and peaceful. I do hope that I can perhaps give one a home here in the rural side of England one day.
If you want a longboi why not try adopting a greyhound? There are many rescued ex-racing greyhounds needing loving homes! I have one and he's the most wonderful dog :)

Beautiful! Does the silken windhounds have longer fur than the borzoi? And I have heard that silken windhounds are easier to train, is that True? Or is it very different from dog to dog? I love these dogs! ❤ beauty number one
I think borzois typically have more coat than Silkens but my borzoi (the big black one) just doesn't have much coat lol. Yes, usually Silkens are easier to train :)
Ashley Marysa thank you! My Dream is to have one of these dogs ❤ but I Don't know wich one that I want the most... But in I havent found a windhound kennel in Sweden, so it will probably be a borzoi. :)
nestleigh1 mine have been fine in 4ft fence enclosures for short periods of time, like at parks, but I wouldn’t feel safe if my yard fencing was only 4ft (mine is 6ft). I know some that will bounce right over a fence that short with ease.
The biggest difference is their size! Borzoi are giant dogs-- mine is the big black one and his shoulders are at my hip height (31.5"). Silken Windhounds are a lot smaller, at under 24". :) The Silken is a relatively new breed that was developed from borzoi, shelties, and whippets. The Wikipedia articles on both breeds give a pretty good run down :)
I think it's very individual based on the hound's personality. Probably a lot easier with a silken than a borzoi... But I have seen a lot of cats do well in borzoi homes :) My borzoi has no interest in hurting/hunting cats but he sure loves to chase them. For mellow cats, it's no big deal but for anxious cats, it makes them super freaked out :(
My wife and I are getting a silken wind hound in a few months! I’m hearing a lot of contradictory stuff regarding silkens off leash. Some people say they’re great off leash and don’t want to stray too far from you, and others say you must never let them off leash due their “high prey drive”. Do you have any thoughts on this? Is this a “depends on the dog” type of thing? Thanks!
I do think it depends on the individual dog but the vast majority of silkens I have met are very easy off leash hiking dogs! The breed founder refers to it as their “maximum mommy distance” because after a certain distance, they boomerang back to their people :)
Ashley Thanks so much for reaching back out! That’s music to my ears. We’re so excited to get our little silken (: and the breeder does temperament testing so I think it’ll be the perfect fit!
Please don't listen to people telling you they need to be on leash. But use common sense. The only time they would run away is if they get startled. So stay away from roads.
My problem with the very large breeds of sighthounds is they don’t grow so old 😓😓😓 so I’ll be loving my whippet until the time feels right to add a larger dog to the family
Borzoi are some of the longest living giant breeds with 10-12 years being common and we have quite a few hitting 14 and older. The oldest I remember hearing about in recent memory was 18.
this is what my dreams look like
😅 mine to!

I've heard of Barzois,, but I've never heard of a Silken Windhound. It sounds like a creature out of a fantasy novel. :D
They are a newer breed, a borzoi hybrid, Silkens are my favorite breed :)
This is heaven
ARE THOSE BORZOI'S?
I am jealous.
3 borzois and 5 silken windhounds! :)
Ashley Marysa So pretty *-*
Gorgeous! What a beautiful pack!
Awesome area to let sighthounds run.

They’re such wonderful dogs! 🥰
Lovely! Sight hounds are the BEST!
Yes. They are. I have 2 greyhounds and a zoi
@@Inotacookie Sweet!
wonderful, thank you for sharing.
all of them are so cute
I feel like if I told someone I saw this creature no one would believe/I would create a new cryptid.
Haha one of mine has a tag that says “actual cryptid”
русская псовая борзая - лучшая порода в мире!

They are so Gorgeous
When I heard the music I thought you were going to ask me for money for your kickstarter.
LOL it didn’t seem so widely used when I made this video all those years ago. Now whenever I see kickstarter videos, I think of my dogs hiking
same great comment
Brings back memories when I did the same with my Borzois and Whippets.
The Borzois had the freedom and the pleasure to hunt Rabbits.
They're SO FAST!!

They’re such beautiful Dogs why get a pug when you can get a borzoi
Pipsqueaks Pets why not both? 😁
I just feel it’s cruel to get a dog with breathing problems
Pipsqueaks Pets OH LOL I THOUGHT YOU SAID PIG 😂😂. Hahaha I agree
Haha ye I did type pig first by accident lol 😀
I mean pugs are kinda like pigs😁

do you ever have a problem with Borzoi jumping over short fences, such as a 4 foot fence?
nestleigh1 mine have been fine in 4ft fence enclosures for short periods of time, like at parks, but I wouldn’t feel safe if my yard fencing was only 4ft (mine is 6ft). I know some that will bounce right over a fence that short with ease.

What is the difference between the Borzoi and the Silken Windhound?

Ashley Marysa They are such beautiful dogs. I seriously want one sometime in the future. Being sighthounds though do you know how they do around cats?
I think it's very individual based on the hound's personality. Probably a lot easier with a silken than a borzoi... But I have seen a lot of cats do well in borzoi homes :)
