Clip 0 Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Just wondering if any of you have experience with this cross. What quarry did they take?, what do you think they could take? Any pics? Clip Quote Link to post
collie/grey 238 Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 I haven't got this cross, but i have a borzoi, she has amazing speed and a prey drive to die for with attitude, she'll chase anything, i've took her lamping a couple of times and she was really keen, but i haven't done much more with her because i only have the time to work the lurchers. I've always wondered how a borzoi cross would do. Quote Link to post
Clip 0 Posted February 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 I've read a few times now that borzois have great speed, how fast compared to your lurchers would you say she is? Clip. Quote Link to post
collie/grey 238 Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 When she really does run, she passes some of them when they 'race' each other. She's faster than one of my greyhounds. But the fastest of mine is my beddy/whip x grey, she can't pass him, but none of em do! She's got good stamina too. Quote Link to post
Clip 0 Posted February 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Would love to see pics of a first cross, wonder if the borzoi coat comes through. Quote Link to post

leegreen 2,141 Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 I remember a Borzoi x Greyhound at a few shows back in the mid eighties but that is about it I'm affraid. Oh and it was sort of a red colour. Quote Link to post
whin 463 Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 saw some borzios run and well they couldnt turn the jack rabbit ,most are crossed with coyote hounds and greyhounds in the area of nebraska for co yotes some are handy dogs but i would say a goodline bred longdog or lurcher would be more suited than a borzio ,but if you like them keep them , there must be some good ones but only saw pure breeds against fast wily jackrabbits , who can outpace most dogs a part from fast sighthoundy types, therll be some good ones out there but well ,its finding the owners who test them breed for work not show all the best Quote Link to post

Lennard 10 Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 (edited) Some time ago there were some rescue pups here in NL...in a spanish shelter they had a hot barsoi bitch and a greyhound took his chance...the people of this website have one, a big white bitch called Saar...pretty greyhoundy with something eastern to it... http://merceyclan.blog.com/2007/6/ and the Valeska people work their barsois...
