zoribo 1 Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 I have a great interest in all longdogs. I have bred and shown Borzoi for a lot of years, also owned Whippets. I shared the importation of the first Silken Windhound into this Country. Francie Stull in America who formed the breed did not make up long haired Whippets. This was another man in America. Francie bred various lurcher type animals with Borzoi to make a small coated hound that can indeed and does indeed work. They are fast and are used for racing and coursing in America. Those of us that now own them in England know that the hunting, coursing instinct is very strong, as well as being good working animals they are also beautiful (I think) and make wonderful house pets. We have a Club for them in England and you can also find out anything you need to by googling Silken Windhounds. Zoribo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
