I’ve been dreaming about having a Borzoi for many-many years since I was 7 years old. I saw a very handsome red and white Borzoi for the first time then. My heart was overwhelmed with the beauty of this aristocrat. The emotion was so strong that it did not even occur to me that it is possible to own this Beauty.
 
Many years later I did quite a research and the old classic type of Russian Borzois that was preserved in the UK really appealed to me the most of all.
That is how I found Miss Margaret Manning who has old English bloodlines in her breeding such as Keepers, Rodgivad, Dimland, Falconcrag, Reyas, etc. So 
I contacted Miss Margaret Manning.

We had numerous talks about her breeding program and her dogs. 
I could immediately feel that this breeder is a very knowledgeable person knowing very well the bloodlines that she is breeding on.

She kindly explained everything I ever wanted to know and I felt how much she knows and loves the breed. I made my mind and I never ever regretted it afterwards - the honest, respected, serious , knowledgeable breeder and extremely kind and supportive person.

I found everything I was looking for in a Borzoi in Manitias kennel:
Stable inbred type
Classic look and sound type with gorgeous veined  heads
Nice balance and proportions
Substance combined with elegance
Very good angulation with excellent fronts
Small ears
Silky floating coats
- and superb effortless ground covering movement.
I also need to mention wonderful sweet temperaments combined with high stamina.

Miss Margaret Manning was so kind to entrust me to have 3 wonderful Manitias Borzois:
Manitias Kubinec
, Manitias Zrak and Manitias Daggers Drawn.
 

So Kubinec arrived in summer 2000, Zrak - in april 2001 and Daggers in spring 2002. Since then they became my beloved and cherished friends and family members and my life has changed considerably.
Also they make me and Margaret proud being very successful in the show ring quickly obtaining Champion Titles in the motherland of the breed and being appreciated and winning BOBs and being placed in Group under many well-known and respected experts from different countries at big competitive
shows , from such countries as Russia, Byelorussia, America, Sweden, Chekh. Republic, Italy, Ireland, Germany, South Africa , Israel, etc. These facts speak for themselves. 

Miss Margaret Manning breeds beautiful borzois for 40 years now. She is a wonderful person with immense love and dedication to the breed, also she is a serious and honest breeder. 

I am very lucky to be able to have such beautiful Borzois and my respect and gratitude to the breeder - Miss Margaret Manning - is immense and I find great difficulty in expressing my feelings in simple words.

Margaret let me have wonderful, healthy, sweet and successful dogs (which is an extra bonus), as well as she is always ready to provide support and advice and to share her profound knowledge of the breed. 

Thank you Margaret for your wonderful work and all the best of luck in what you are doing!
