Very nice!

It's very hard to exaggerate how slender and pointy a Borzoi is. :)

The modern Borzoi are much bulkier and hairier than the originals, of which there were some in that video pack.

If you didn’t watch closely, you’d think they were Greys or Lurchers because they lack the heavy feathering of today’s Borzoi.

I was thrilled to find such an old video of them.

Had no idea such things even existed.

Borzoi of yesteryear

Notice how they did not really have the typical "Roman nose" of modern dogs?

They were much less pointy, then...:)
