I lived with borzoi from my first day.
The Andersen family got their first borzoi, Ekhaga Irina, in 1968 and the Murugi kennel was registred in 1972. Owners of the kennel was Berit and Arvid Andersen. Later when their daughter Camilla grew up, she also took part in both breeding and showing. It was never a large kennel, at most they had 6 to 8 borzoi at one time, and never kept any other breed
Signer and Axel Hallqvist are one of the pilars of Swedish borzoi breeding. Started in the late 1940 thies With a bitch, Royty...
Helena and Ingemar owned borzoi from the Ekhaga kennels, first a large male dag, Ekhaga Don and later the bitch Ekhaga Piroschka. Piroschka was bred to Tzar's Cibitj in a joint breeding between the Andersens, the Törnbergs and with Signe Hallqvist as adviser. From the breeding, Andersen's kept Podjajka and Törnbergs Chodlik. Both these bred on and is still found in pedigrees.
