Meet the breeder
I'm Ashleigh H., the breeder behind Pagosa Borzoi located in Jefferson City, MO. We want to do our part to preserve the Borzoi breed. We have outstanding dogs with wonderful temperaments that thrive in the ring and as our companions. Our goal is to produce healthy puppies that can compete in a variety of venues, as well as be faithful friends to their loving families.
Q. & A. with Ashleigh
Why did you start breeding?
I was introduced to the Borzoi breed in 2021 and was completely smitten by a puppy. With a motivation to try a hand at showing dogs, I took this puppy home and soon came others. I found a passion for showing and coursing my dogs, and began to understand the preservation of this amazing breed. I have learned the importance of ethics and responsibility in the art of preservation breeding.What makes your program special?
All dogs used in the program will be health tested to CHIC standards per the BCOA. Each pairing is carefully considered in part to put the best dogs together that we can. We take health, conformation, drive, temperament, pedigree, and performance into consideration prior to planning a pairing.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Yaro, dad
Borzoi
About Yaro
Yaro is an exuberant boy who will capture your heart with his dark, loving eyes and wagging tail. A very biddable and social Borzoi. He is keen on the lure and loves to travel. He earned both majors towards his CH at 7.5 years old. His strengths are in his front, deep chest, and substance. He is a moderate but balanced and athletic dog.
Excellent health testing

Borzoi
About Hansel
Hansel is a blend of gentle temperament, athleticism, and strong conformation. He has all normal results with OFA, including thyroid, cardiac, and eye exams. He is DM clear by parentage and testing. Hansel loves to travel, hang out with the family, chase plastic and game, or be a training partner. He is really a fabulous dog to be with. Hansel is a moderate dog, balanced from front to rear. He has good rib spring and is extremely muscular. We are hoping his offspring inherit his strong conformation, athleticism, and great personality.
