Brusnichka Nevskaia* “Bruska” aka “Bunya”

Rus Ch Sarko Nevskii x BIS Rus Bel Ch Boiarynia-Dusha Nevskaia
August 5, 1993–July 26, 2006
Bred by Tatiana Dedkova, Nevsky Borzoi, Russia
Owned by Zabava

Bruska was our first Borzoi.  We imported her from Russia, our home country, when she was four months.  Bunya was a confident girl and she adored people and children.  She ruled Zabava throughout her lifetime.  Bruska was the dam of our first litter (see W Litter), which was sired by Mitzka (MSBIS Am Can Ch Mariza Brother Karamazov, Best Borzoi Male in 2002).  Bruska thought dog shows were stupid; since Mitzka was such a star that we did not show her much.  We brought out Bruska in 2003 for the Puget Borzoi Club Specialty and showed her in the 10+ Veteran Class.  Bruska was very excited to be in the ring and ran around as fast as she could because she knew her diet would be temporarily on hold and she would get tons of liver bits for her performance.  Judge Kalen Duke of Nonsuch Borzoi could not resist and awarded our Bunya Best Veteran Bitch in show.
