Beth joined our family at 3 months of age.  "Princess Elizabeth" prefers sleeping on a couch & lets her cousins have the dog beds on the floor.   Beth is best friends with our sheltie Kyle, and enjoys chasing him & playing tug with him.    Beth has full dentition and a scissors bite.  Unlike a lot of borzoi, she enjoys obedience training.  9 month old Beth went to her first conformation show, and beat 3 other females for 1 point.   At 10 months old, Beth won placements in both sweeps and regular 9 - 12 month classes at the 2009 National.  As a yearling, Beth won 2 more points, and a major reserve in conformation, and earned 4 performance titles.  She passed her Canine Good Citizen test, earned the Junior Courser and Senior Courser titles and completed her Rally Novice title with scores of 92, 92 and 99.  She earned points in AKC lure coursing. 

As a 2 year old, Beth earned her obedience Beginners-Novice (BN) title, earned 2 majors in conformation, and a major in AKC lure coursing.  At the January, 2011 MBC specialty show, Beth won Reserve Winners Bitch, from the open class, owner handled by KC. 

As a 3 year old, Beth finished her Conformation Championship with a third major, owner handled by Steve.  Beth also finished her Rally Advanced title in 3 trials.  She won another major in AKC lure coursing, giving her 11 points, 2 majors.  As a 4 year old, Beth earned her Rally Excellent title in 3 trials. 

Injury ended her sports career. She was a wonderful house dog and companion. Never a cross word for anybody, even the puppies. Everybody loved Beth. We are grateful for the 10 1/2 years we shared with her. Beth passed away from a tumor next to her heart January 4, 2019.
