Your favourite AKC dog breed is the Borzoi. Borzois are gentle and dignified with impressive abilities as swift lure coursers. Lure coursing is a sport in which a hound chases after a lure of three plastic bags speeding over a course, or track. Borzois enjoy long runs and cold weather, but are quiet in the house. The Borzoi is a member of the Hound Group and was first recognised by the AKC in 1891. Another name for the Borzi is Russian Wolfhound. They were imported to America in the 1890's. This is the perfect breed gift, telling all about Borzois. A great dog lover gift on a t shirt, hoodie, mug, sticker, magnet, button, ornament - makes a great Borzoi Christmas Gift.
