I don't have picture, but there is a 9 year old Borzoi named Troika who is deeply grieving the death of his owner who lost his battle with cancer and is in need of a foster or forever home. Right now I believe he is in Northern CA, but the Borzoi rescue folks up there are desperate to find him a place to be. He is said to be
"a house dog with an at-home owner, has a wonderful disposition and good manners, and we hear he is grieving deeply. The dog has been essentially alone for the past week - he needs to go immediately to a permanent home or, if needed, a foster home where he can feel loved and begin to mend."

Troika's plight is already posted on my local animal alliance website, the Borzoi Rescue - Northern California is involved, but I thought I'd post this here as he is a sight hound and maybe members here could network him in hopes that someone here in the West can open their home to this poor boy, at least temporarily.

The woman to contact for more detailed information is:

Nancy Joeckel, Treasurer
Borzoi Rescue - Northern California
541-482-6442

I'll pass along her email when I get it.

Thanks!

Connie

I thinks it's so sad when a dog grieves it's owner. I hope he finds his home quickly. He needs to be happy again.

I hope Troika finds a new home.

Good news! Troika has found a new home with a person who has Borzoi and Borzoi rescue experience. I hope the best for this sad boy.

I hope Troika has happiness again with his new owners. Please keep us updated. I hope he does well.

That is so Sad!!! I hope he gets a FOREVER home real soon!

That's wonderful news, I hope he mends fast.
