I have always had a rescue in my midst. There is always room for one more dog... If I have to take the dog out, may as well be two, If I have to feed one- two is no problem. If I go to the vet for one, two is no problem... We are adding a collie soon, and totally different than a borzoi, thinks different than a borzoi- and he will be loved just as WELL AS A BORZOI...
