Busya aka “Boo” was very opinionated, sweet, confident and had a real sense of humor. Busya’s face reminded us our “Mitzka”, her grandfather, MSBIS Am Can Ch Mariza Brother Karamazov, but her attitude and expression was so much like her grandmother Brusnichka Nevskaia. Boo ruled the pack at Zabava until the end. She even had ideas as to what the humans should be doing! She made us laugh and we miss her so much… Busya was a good-sized yet

elegant girl with gorgeous dark eyes, small high-set ears, and lots of coat. She was completely sound on the down and back, had excellent hare-shaped feet and long straight tail. Boo was a very keen huntress and although we did not have time to take her out lure coursing in her prime, she did earn a JC as an older adult. Although Boo never had any litters herself, we see her in her nieces and nephews, sired by her litter brother Captain, Am GCH Zabava Bering Strait.
