Zubin and Galina casual show stack*UPDATED pg2 +Hottie and Femka

They both are like- " the deck mom?? Oh jeez- I feel stupid out here" but shine in the ring.
People have requested up to date pictures. My husband is holding the lead, and keep in mind- he is over 6 foot tall. Also some people are not sure which is which in the pictures I post. Galina has a wider skull, and spots of grey/mixed with black on her left shoulder- Zubin has a longer head and tighter back skull ( more desired). Galina is also obviously shorter in height. ( as she should be..) Also- here is a casual shot of Zubin in the yard watching his sister down below. You can see in the one shot of Zubin his beautiful shoulder and rear, and his rise on his back, like his sisters, is spot on right after the ribs as it should be.. Anyway- here we go.. They start the show ring in February, and I can not wait!

They are BEAUTIFUL Michelle! Thanks for posting these, i just love your kiddos :) And congrats on getting back into the ring!! how exciting :D

oh yea- you recognize the rolled eyes of " jeez I feel stupid out here..." ... ( bow to the dive- bow to the diva..)

Great pictures of Zubin and Galina. I definitely like the "diva shot" as well. :p

Zubin and Galina are both gorgeous! :)

Wow, your doggies are beautiful! Before I came on PetTalk and seen your dogs, I never even knew there was such a breed, but ever since I seen them, they are one of my favorite breeds now! They are so elegant and pretty, and they look very tall too, how high to they reach?

Typical males are 32 inches and up ( Zubin is 36 and half) Females at least 28 but 30 or higher is desired. They have to be strong enough to take down wolves or bobcats as original use etc, but elegant and dignified enough to live in a palace without disturbing things with their tails etc. Galina is 34.
Hottie is 34 at the shoulder, and Femka is the smallest at 32 inches at the shoulder. When Zubin is on his back feet he is over my husbands head by about two inches, and a foot over mine. This was take at 10 months old. He was about 33 at the time at the shoulder. Galina is eye to eye to me on her back feet..

Wow, such beautiful, large and gentle dogs.
I had never heard of many of the breeds I have learned about here on PT.
That is another reason I love this site so much. I am expanding my knowledge each and every time I am on here.

Thank you for sharing those pictures with us!! :)

Aww, they're beautiful. So elegant. :D

:eek: Is it just me, or are their feet (especially front) HUGE? Wowzers!

One more thing... I think hottie and femka are feeling left out. *hint hint* ;)

They are supposed to have a "hare like" foot, so yes- the toes are long especially in the front. This is to cover ground and balence the leg in a all out run...
Its dark now- I will get my husband to hold Femka and Hottie tomorrow.. ( I got the hint.. lol. )

Thanks so much Borzoimom for the info, greatly appreciated, they are a beautiful breed:D

They are very regal looking dogs. Beautiful. :)

Thanks-You so Much ~ Borzoimom~ for Posting those Beautiful Pictures of Your Dogs!!!

Before I became a Member on Pet Talk, I couldn't tell a Borzoi from a Greyhound :D ~Sooo, I've learned sooo much about Dog Breeds and the specific nature of each one to boot!!

Borzois are Simply Gorgious!!!! So large and so elegant~ I'm so Happy for you too, Getting Back to Your "Show Ring" Again!!!!

I really like the pictures taken on the Deck ( along with their facial expressions )

There arent too many borzois. They are like number 95 this past year out of 157 so that tells you. People think the size and coat is alot of work- but they are very docile and the coat has very little under coat so they do not mat.
Thank you so much for your comments.. I wasnt sure about posting the picture with the peeved look from galina.. lol.
