Virago the show dog

Finished 2003 with five Hound Group placements in a few months of shows.

In 2004, he had many more Hound Group placements , a Specialty Best of Breed, and an all breed Best in Show. He finished the year as #3 in all-breed competition and #8 in breed, shown only 8 months.

In 2005, Virago was BOB, Best Bred By Exhibitor, and placed in the BBE Hound Group at the AKC/Eukanuba Invitational Tournament of Champions. In 2005, he was awarded Best of Breed at the Midwest Borzoi Club Specialty in Detroit, by breeder-judge Dr. John Reeve-Newsom. He finished in the Top 5 in breed, and in the Top10 All-breed competition, shown about 30 times.

Best in Show
AKC Invitational

Vir has effortless side gait and the carriage and attitude we treasure. He is an ultimate "party dog" and thinks that a dog show is just that.

His brief class career included three majors, and two Sweepstakes wins.

Virago the sire

Virago has sired twenty-six Champions, and three Group winners so far, out of eight different dams, with others close to their titles. He was the top producing Borzoi sire for 2006 and 2007, and leading for 2009.

Virago the character

Virago keeps us endlessly entertained with high energy, keen intelligence and cooperative attitude with people and dogs. He has been our joy since he was a tiny puppy, very much a male version of his famous mother.
