I'm not sure if I've said this to you before. And if I have, I'll gladly say it again! Your dogs are absolutely stunning. =]

Thank you so much. We tried to do all 4 at one time, but to keep them all stacked and lined up, I have to hold them ( and I cant.. sniff sniff pout pout..) but as soon as I am back on my feet, pictures of all 4 will come..
:o I'm being really stupid. lol, I'm running my curser over hotties chest. It looks so soft. *virtual petting!*
Femkas front legs are really thin, wow. I never would have thought it.
*begins virtual petting famka as well*
They're so adorable. Of course, hotties colour kills me. You must have a lot of dead bodies lying around your house. Any visitor that comes over and sees your precious... (now it goes duo, trio, but what is four... :confused: ) your precious four-o. :p
(there are probably also dead people who have seen how clean your house is. :eek: They probably didn't faint before they saw you had 4 big dogs in the house)
And when the people wake up (the ones that only fainted, not the ones that melted competely) they will not be able to part with your dogs. I know I wouldn't. :p
Femka is such a good girl. :D I love the colouring on her face. The brown suits her so well.
Anyways, see? My proof. If you bug someone long enough, they WILL give your pics. You've been a part of scientific research, Michelle! (I gained a lot from this research, too. ;) ) Thank you for being part of research which involved me getting some more borzoi pics. :D
You have very lovely dogs! :D
Thank you! Those are my 4 "ponies"...
Those dont LOOK like shepards.............gets glasses on :cool:
sorry couldn't help it *on floor giggling*
not even close do they???? lol..

Then oh no shepherds today? ... etc.
YOu wonderful words and comments made my night for sure- and thank you!
Finally took time to go through this thread. Wow, I love the picture of your husband eye-to-eye with (sorry I forgot which one it was). What a TALL dog!
Look at the Hottie - he sure is! He looks like he knows he's hot, too ;)
Borzoi's ere bred to hunt down wolves, yes? They look rather fragile (although extremely elegant!) for hunting such a daunting prey. Are they pretty hardy? I'm surprised they have no undercoat - being developed in Russia, I thought they would have a more dense coat for the cold.
They are actually an incrediably powerful breed. Very strong, with strong neck, shoulders and muscles. Their prime asset is speed and determination to chase. Usually up along side of the " prey" and grab the neck to stop it. They have powerful shoulders, and you are surprised when you touch the dogs, although they look "aristocratic" just how powerful they are. Wolves, bobcats etc including rabbits- shows a powerful, but agile breed. You can tell by looking at the length of the shoulder bone, muscles, and rear every inch of the breed is made to hunt with deep bones and mucle tone.Quote:

My guys love snow- as I stated before, to the point I have to make them come in the house by taking their collars.
The one standing up is Zubin- as a 10 month ( actually closer to 9 months old). He has grown since then obviously
It was WONDERFUL to find a long lost friend! How amazing that it is such a small world! Wouldn't have traded the Gasps Luaghs or tears last night for a million dollars!
And yes I hear that too about the Rotties, worse though since I do rescue now and it is for dobies not Rotties (although the occosional Rott graces us for a time). I miss the ring now and again but I am so glad you found a breed that you will excel in AGAIN LOL! Still shoud've bought a Mystic pup yrs ago, *kicks self * :rolleyes:
(I've gotta do that too :p )Quote:

:confused: What are you talking about? They are not all border collies, Femka is mostly newf, maybe a bit of border collie in there. That's why she can't show femka ;) . The others she shows, because they're purebred BCs.Quote:
