Borzoi Exercise & Activity Needs
Borzoi are sighthounds — bred for speed rather than endurance.
Most Borzoi benefit from:
- Daily structured walks
- Secure, fenced areas for safe running
- Calm home environments
- Controlled off-lead exercise in secure locations
Because of their strong prey drive, secure fencing is essential. They may instinctively chase smaller animals.
Feeding and Nutrition for a Borzoi
Proper feeding supports healthy growth, joint strength and coat condition.
Key considerations include:
- High-quality large-breed dog food
- Controlled growth during puppy development
- Maintaining a lean body condition
- Structured feeding routines
As a deep-chested breed, careful feeding practices may also help reduce the risk of bloat.
Fresh water is especially important in warmer Australian climates.
