One or two females might be available. Serious inquires, welcome.
The male we have chosen as the father of this litter is Zabava Mercury (2002 — 2010). He comes from the renowned Borzoi kennel, owned by Irina & Kristina Terra in the USA.
They had their first litter in 1998. "Merkusha" comes from their second litter (M-litter), born in 2002. The litter that has proven to have a positive impact on the breed, both at home and abroad.
"Merkusha`s" life was cut
short suddenly, when he died after a collision accident. He was a
healthy and cheerful clown at home, always with a smile on his face.
"Merkusha" was a "once in a lifetime" Borzoi boy...
Both parents of the upcoming litter have normal values for; Heart, Eyes, Thyroid & DM (N/N). Merkusha also has a CHIC number in AKC (USA).
In the spring of 2024, Ballada - as the only Norwegian-born borzoi - won the bitch class, the challenge certificate (CC), and best in the opposite sex. At Europe's largest and most prestigious exhibition in England, namely CRUFTS.
She has also been Borzoi of the Year'23, and won BIS at the Borzoi Speciality in the same year.
