Borzois and Cheetahs are so similar in build, hunting strategy, metabolism, and ecological niche, I figured they'd get along. So I entered Borzoi Cheetah into search, et voila! So glad they have each other!
I agree. I had a cruel SOB by the name of KEITH CLARENCE ROBERTS put a staple in my borzoi's nose. I've never seen a dog react sooooo fast - had there been a wall there to stop him from falling backward - I think Korotai the Borzoi would have had no problem causing a bilateral carotid bleed. In play he had no trouble cracking a broom handle in two.
@InfectiousCranberry When I think about it, cats are still two classes above dogs. In terms of killing efficiency, power and speed. There are things at which Canidae outclasses Felidae of course, such as stamina.
the cheetah would rather run away, than try and fight animals that are bigger and fearless. it cannot rist any injuries. the most domesticated big cat, once used to hunt for humans. beautifull cat. (:
I think the Cheetah has more to fear from the dog,these dogs were bred to catch wolf,believe me you never forget a borzoi bite,fortunately that is very rare.
@TheBorzoilover I agree with you too. People should stop worrying about the Borzoi! Cheetah's have the weakest bites of all the big cats - it's apparently barely stronger than a humans!
It´s a very small zoo in Czech republic. I saw them. Cheetah lady is called Mzuri and borzoi Ustinov. People in zoo are very nice, they can ensure the meeting with cheetah.
@BluesChanteuse I agree with you; but there's a huge possibility (as it is this way in other instances) that the cub was cared for in the home at a very young age (since some zoo/wildlife rescues have foster volunteers/staff), that the dog may have been the caregiver's pet, and the cub grew up with the dog.
@Forwardess Well obviously the Cheetah grew up with the dog. I'm really not sure what difference that makes. It doesn't matter if the cheetah was raised with the dog. At some point the Cheetah is likely to turn on the dog and it will probably have dire consequences. That's what makes it irresponsible. The Cheetah can't and won't be domesticated. It's wild and will end up seriously hurting or killing the dog.
@BluesChanteuse Eh, whomever works with these animals must put a lot of faith in their own ability to prevent such a tragedy and is fully aware of the possibilities and is willing to take their chances.
@Forwardess If they, as you say, put faith in their own ability to prevent such a tragedy then they are stoopid, stoopid, stoopid. The whole point is that a tragedy CAN'T be prevented. The fact that they're willing to "take their chances" with the dog's life is *exactly* what makes this so grossly negligent. But "eh"... as long as people are "entertained" by the video, who gives a crap. :shame:
@VieraBoNie The fact that they've grown together makes no difference. The Cheetah is wild and will eventually turn on the dog. It's extremely irresponsible. They CAN NOT ensure the meeting.

@McNistor but when you think about it...Borzois really are the same as cats in big furry dog bodies.

This video is obviously intriguing and at face value seems endearing.
But who the heck could ever put their dog at risk like that.? It's downright irresponsible. Shame.
