Ms. Lille is a Borzoi mix. She is about two years old. You won't find this breed very often available in Iowa. She is very sweet. Good with other dogs and is fine with kids and adults. Not sure on cats. A little on the breed: Once past the boisterous puppy stage, most Borzois are calm and quiet indoors, gliding through your living room with light-footed grace. Off-leash, though, the Borzoi can explode into a powerful, driving, floating gallop. Therefore the space where he is loosed to run must be safe and enclosed, else he will be out of sight in seconds. With strangers, most Borzois are polite but reserved. Because of their great size and strength, they require early socialization to avoid either aggression (very rare) or skittishness/shyness (more common). Usually sociable with other dogs of their own size, the Borzoi is a deadly serious chaser of anything that runs, including cats and small dogs. Once known as Russian Wolfhound, this breed can easily dispatch almost any smaller animal. Like all sighthounds, Borzoi are independent and not inclined to obey slavishly. Though usually sweet and docile, this breed can be touch-sensitive and may react with lightning reflexes if grabbed unexpectedly or startled. This is a not a breed to be taken lightly or teased. If you think you have what it takes to own a Borzoi please go to our website at www.patriotsforpets.com and complete an adoption application. Her adoption fee will be $250.00 - that includes spay, heartworm negative, current shots and micro-chip.
