This blog is about teaching your Borzoi jumping for agility. Often we are asked, “What number of jumps is best to begin with?” You can’t ever have enough single jumps to teach agility. One suitable starting place is four jumps. This is the least number of jumps that we recommend.
Teaching Your Borzoi to jump: Start with 4
You can teach your Borzoi many exercises, skills, and drills with 4 jumps. 4 jumps will allow you to work on a short jump chute or jump grid. You can practice on a “box” with your jumps and work on handling, collection, and 270 degree jumps. You can teach your Borzoi jumping right and left. You could be out of the box and send your Borzoi or you can handle from the inside of the box. Your jumps can be staged in a lateral line, so you can practice threadles and serpentines.

Raising dogs, especially providing care for the borzoi, is a specialty of humans across the world. Experts say dogs were domesticated sometime between 12,000 and 25,000 years ago—and that all dogs evolved from the wolf. Since then, we have selectively bred more than four hundred breeds, varying in size from 4-pound teacup poodles all the way up to Irish wolfhounds, who have earned the distinction of tallest pooch. But the most popular pooches are non-pedigree dogs—the one-of-a-kind dogs known as mixed-breeds. The borzoi is also a favorite pick with dog owners. Many owners are misinformed, however, of some common borzoi care tips.
