Puppies are raised using ENS and an adapted form of puppy culture, that is geared towards raising a well adjusted borzoi puppy.
Thank you for your interest in a Starswift Borzoi puppy! The welfare of our puppies is first priority. We wish to make sure that our puppies live full and happy lives in a home with people who love them. We try our best to place puppies only in the most loving and responsible of homes and this application form is designed to help us with that process.
Matching the lifestyle and dynamic of the family with a puppy of the proper temperament is the most important element of puppy selection.
Our puppies will always come back to us if they need to be re-homed. We will place them with an approved family who are willing to sign and honor our puppy care contract.
