The borzoi (/'b rz /) is a breed of domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris) also called the Russian wolfhound and descended from dogs brought to Russia from central Asian countries. It is similar in shape to a greyhound, and is also a member of the sighthound family.The system by which Russians over the ages named their sighthounds was a series of descriptive terms, not actual names. "Borzoi" is the masculine singular form of an archaic Russian adjective that means "fast". "Borzaya sobaka" ("fast dog") is the basic term used by Russians, though the word "sobaka" is usually dropped. The name "Psovaya" derived from the word Psovina, meaning "wavy, silky coat", just as "Hortaya" (as in Hortaya Borzaya) means shorthaired.
