The Borzoi has been said to have a catlike personality, and although they are very smart dogs they can be a bit difficult to train. Training should begin at a young age and remain firm and consistent. Borzoi are very sensitive dogs and your patience is a must. You should always use positive methods when it comes to training and never hit a Borzoi. As stated they are very sensitive and although very affectionate, they are also timid and you will find that your trust will be lost if you raise a hand to a Borzoi. Professional help and obedience classes would be wise, if possible.
Borzoi and all sighthounds have a reputation for being independent and stubborn. They are not necessarily hard nor easy to train, but they are very intelligent and like to make their own decisions. You can compare them to cats in terms of personality, so it's possible to train them but you need to have a good grasp of dog behavior cues to win their respect.
You can teach a Borzoi to sit just like any other dog. One method is to raise a treat over their head. As they reach up to get it, their bottom will go down. When it hits the ground, say sit and reward with the treat + praise. Be aware though that due to the anatomy of the Borzoi, it is uncomfortable for them to remain sitting for extended periods of time. This is especially true of fully matured, adult Borzoi.
The borzoi originated in Russia. In 1650 the first borzoi standard was written.
