FOUND

Bonnie - Found Borzoi

A female Borzoi was turned into the Glenwood, ILL animal control as a stray around 3/18/08. They kept her for a week then turned her over to the Chicago Heights Shelter on the 24th. She has no dew claws, likes men and women,is completely house trained and gets along with Sue's house dogs just fine. We believe she is someone's pet and was obviously very much loved. She is between 4&6 years old, no chip or tattoo. Sue has called several other shelters and vet offices in the general area with no luck. She will also check news papers. If you recognize our Mystery Girl, please contact Carol Backers 1-888-264-8898 or cbackers@torchlake.com We will keep her in foster care for two weeks but if bher owners or breeder is not found, she will be placed into a new home after that.


FOUND

A young Borzoi was found in a dog park in Brandera, TX. He appears to be a young boy who loves everyone. He has been taken to the local shelter and will stay there for 3 days in the hope that his owner claims him. I have emailed and asked for colors or a picture and am waiting to hear back. Anyone sell a dog to that area of TX??? If so, please contact the people to see if this is their dog.


LOST

Maurugi and Makari missing since 10-24-2007, 9:15PM. 8 year old, intact male Borzoi/Russian Wolfhounds. mostly white with pale red, Approximately 33' tall and slender. Look like very tall greyhounds with long hair or tall, thin collies.

At the time they were lost, Maurugi was missing most of his hair from mid-back to tail tip from an allergic reaction to fleas. Makari was very itchy. The only flea spot treatment recommended by the vet for sensitive sighthounds was the one where the fleas have to bite them to die! Both boyz were miserable. I was bathing them every 3 to 4 days with a special, non-toxic flea shampoo.

Maurugi was wearing a rolled leather collar with not tags, they had fallen off in the backyard the day before. Makari's collar, which still has tags, was removed to bathe him. They wanted out so I let them go do their business and decided to finish a plumbing repair while they romped a bit. Last seen at the Denny's Restaurant across from the stadiums at I-70 and Blue Ridge Cutoff, Kansas City, Missouri. They appeared there about 9:30PM. They were there for 35 to 45 minutes going up to several people and trying to get into the restaurant and the hotel.

One woman who called from my poster said she called the police but they would only pick them up if they were being vicious or had bitten someone and to call back if they became vicious!!! They had no concept that people could be afraid of them or hurt them. They would go right up to people for help. A sighthound can be lost around the corner from their home. They do not pay attention to scent, they use their eyes and get lost just like little children.

I walked I70 from I435 to Sterling and I435 from 350 Hwy to 23Rd street on both sides, the night they were lost. I took a flash light, and searched the areas thoroughly,there were not dead or injured on the freeway. They have not been seen in my neighborhood. I put flyers on every door step and posters all over the neighborhood and area. such exotic looking dogs could not be missed. I think someone who saw them at Denny's or the Drury Inn must have taken them home. I certainly hope so as then they might be safe.

They kept me active during a 3 1/2 year recovery from a head injury. They are why I am okay today. They are the Boyz Brothers and my family. I worried sick about them and miss them more than mere words can convey.

If you or someone you know had or still have two male dogs like mine, on or after October 24th, 2007, please, please call or email.

Even if you live many miles from here. Travelers stop at Denny's. The boyz could be anywhere in the country by now. They will answer to their names, Maurugi and Makari Pronounced; Ma-rue'-ghee and Ma-car'-ee . Please!

***FOUND***

Two Borzoi were picked up as strays near Phoenix, AZ and are currently in foster care with an all breed rescue. We are working on getting them, but at this time are looking for their breeder in order to locate their owners. Both are intact and in bad shape.

The Girl with the red spots they think is 4 to 5 years old and weighs 48 pounds. The white Girl they believe is around 2 years old and weighs a little more. Both are in very rough shape and have Valley & Tick fever, which they are being treated for. These dogs could have been on their own for quite some time or not, we just don't know. No collar, chip or tattoo.

We are not looking for the breeder for any other reason then to find out who they were sold to. We have had no reports of stolen or missing Borzoi in this area.

To be honest, we really don't know how old either of the Girls are so anyone who has sold any intact female Borzoi to the Phoenix, AZ area, please take a look at them to see if they could be a Borzoi you bred.

We tried to get them and have done everything possible to have this group turn them over to NBRF but, no luck so far. Toni Paskey has been patiently working with the shelter and this group to get any information on them. We will continue working with them. Thank you Toni!! She has been wonderful and SO patient!! This has not been an easy job!

Please, if you have any idea who could have bred these two Girls, they could be two different breeders, contact Carol Backers 1-888-264-8898 or email cbackers@torchlake.com. Please forward this to any list or person you feel may be able to help.

 


Gabriel

Gabriel

Dog

A young male borzoi has gone missing in west Fort Worth - his name is Gabriel, he is about 18 months, intact, almost all white with a little cream spotting. He is microchipped but was not wearing collar ID. Also missing is a 10 year old mixed breed - yellow lab
and other - about 60 pounds (Dog). Chances are good that Dog and Gabriel are running together, so if Gabriel shows up in a shelter, Dog may be there, too. Both animals are very sweet and friendly with strangers.

Gabriel's microchip is between his shoulder blades and is sometimes hard to read. The number is 4460536C61.

Lester and his family are in the process of moving - his contact information is:

Tater was lost around 12/15/2005 in Crossville, TN near Cooksville. She is 3 years old and was only in the home for 6 days before she escaped.

A tree fell on their fence while the home was out. When they came home, they just let their Borzoi out not knowing about the fence. Their other 2 Borzoi stayed in the yard but Tater left.

Tater is a spayed female and is micro chipped. If found or you know anything about this Borzoi, please contact Carol Backers 1-888-264-8898 cbackers@torchlake.com

Miss Biloxi

"Miss Biloxi" has passed over the bridge, but since she was found roaming in Gautier, MS, we are leaving her information up here in case someone is still looking for her.

She was at least 10+ years old and was found in Gautier, MS, exhausted and was taken in by a very kind lady who contacted NBRF. This lady ran an ad in her local paper and contacted all the shelters and Vets in the area - but got no response.
