Prior to the Russian Revolution of 1917, the borzoi was owned and bred exclusively by the landed gentry of the Czar's kingdom. Today it is popular with the wealthy and the working man alike. The breed, though raised to hunt and in some instances to kill wolves, has proved remarkably gentle. Neiman's sympathetic portrayal reveals a borzoi who is keenly alert, intelligent, with a sweet disposition and tractable manner. His borzoi is a born aristocrat representative of the breed- affectionate in moderation and companionable. Even in repose "Borzoi" reflects strength and swiftness together with a regal, graceful bearing. The handsome borzoi depicted is a large, long-coated dog with small, folded ears set on high and tapering to a fine point. The skull is long, narrow and clean, surmounted by a Roman nose with its slightly curved bridge. The borzoi is a sight hound, trained to hunt by sight, not scent, and it is not surprising that its eyes show such warmth and understanding. Their rich black color and almond shape combine with "Borzoi's" slender elegance to lend an air of exotic beauty.
