Borzoi can come in a range of different coat lengths and texture: really thick long hair that is curly or shorter hair that is straight and silky and many others, but whatever coat type you get, the borzoi needs daily brushing. Not with a furminator (sp?) as it seems to tear their outer coat out. A normal, soft pronged brush will do the job.
A bath once every other month should keep them less smelly and clean. Though, they aren't a BIG stinky breed.
Basically, just make sure you brush them daily or once every two days so they don't get tangly.
