[Book a stay](https://happypawskennels.propetware.com/customerLogin)[Call 707-678-6600](tel:+17076786600) [Usually fits a Business Class kennel $59 a night ยท 5 x 6 ft inside](https://happypawskennels.com/dog-boarding/business-class-kennel/) - **Weight (AKC):** 60 to 105 lb - **Kennel:** Business Class, 5 x 6 ft - **Per night:** $59 - **Bath (2024 chart):** $50 to $75 A Borzoi is a large dog, 28 inches and up and 75 to 105 pounds for males, 26 inches and up and 60 to 85 for females by the AKC, with a silky medium coat, so one fits a Business Class kennel (5x6 ft, $59 a night on the 2026 rates). On the 2024 bath chart the Medium column is $50 at 51 to 75 pounds, $55 at 76 to 100 and $75 over 100. AKC lists the Borzoi as a calm, agreeable dog that can reach 35 to 40 miles per hour in full stride. Calm and fast: it is a dog that sleeps all day and sprints in short bursts. ## Tall, narrow, and a bed A Borzoi is tall and deep chested but narrow, so Business Class holds one comfortably, with about 30 square feet inside plus 60 outside. A big male near 105 pounds may prefer [First Class](https://happypawskennels.com/dog-boarding/first-class-kennel/) at $72. The Kuranda bed suits a dog with prominent hip bones. ## Silky coat, three possible cells The coat is silky and medium in length, with feathering on the chest, legs and tail. A female at 60 to 75 pounds is $50 on the chart, a male at 76 to 100 pounds is $55, and a rare male over 100 is $75. AKC puts shedding at 3 of 5. Please ask to confirm. ## Sprinter Energy is 4 of 5, but the pattern is a burst and a nap. The large fenced play areas and the grass field give a sighthound room to run. Walks are included, and the fence matters more than the distance. ## Warm days The NOAA Vacaville normals show a July average high of 97 degrees. A lean borzoi cools faster than a stocky dog, but the silky coat holds heat, so use the air-conditioned inside half at midday. ## Cost Business Class is $59 a night on the 2026 rates, so five nights is 5 x $59. At 14 nights or more it is $53, and two borzoi from one home are $59 plus $50. ## Fences and sighthounds Sighthounds chase what moves, so a sound fence matters. The play areas are large and fenced, and walks are on a leash. Mention on the form if your Borzoi reacts to small animals or fast movement. Tours run every day, 9 to 11 AM and 2 to 4 PM, no appointment. Check-out is by 11:30 AM, and an afternoon pick-up is half of the nightly fee. ## Records and booking Rabies, distemper/parvo, Bordetella and canine influenza records must be good through the last day.

Usually Business Class is enough. A very tall male may like First Class. ### Will my Borzoi be able to run? The large fenced play areas and grass field are for that. ### Is the coat hard to keep? The silky coat mats on the feathering; a bath on the last day is a common choice.
