We have been asked to participate in an upcoming visual study Dr. Anne Midgarden DMV is producing to document movement in Borzoi. The study will work as a visual education tool to show faulted and correct gaiting movement in Borzoi, presumably for AKC judges’ education as well as a publicly available resource for other interested parties.

Dr. Midgarden has previously completed two speed studies (in 2004 and 2007, respectively) to show the impact of construction/form on speed in Borzoi. You can find that study here and the extended study here. Dr. Midgarden also has additional writings on Borzoi form: topline (2000) and croup (2005).
