Borzoi's Dramatic Post-Bath Meltdown Deserves an Award

Some dogs have a flair for the dramatic. While many use their voices to share their opinions, others prefer to express their thoughts with their bodies. Some combine these methods for a truly theatrical effect.

While this dog may have remained silent, he knew how to make some noise. It won't take you long to figure out what he was thinking. Check out his Oscar-winning performance in this video shared on July 30th.

This majestic Borzoi was unhappy about his bath and wanted to ensure everyone knew it. Cosmo (@ cosmoborzoi ) stood in the hall, waiting stoically for someone to notice him. His mom pointed out that he was fuming inside. Unable to hold in his pent-up fury, he turned to the right and stomped! Then he turned to the left and stomped again. During his final stomp, he looked his mom in the eye so that she understood the error of her ways. He sure knew how to throw his weight to make noise with his paws! Finally, after enduring this injustice, he sought comfort in his father's lap, burying his head. This silly guy may have taken some acting classes because this bathtime performance was top-notch.

Borzoi Personality Traits

The Borzoi , also known as the Russian Wolfhound, is a sleek and sensitive dog, initially bred by Russian aristocrats to hunt wolves and other games. With their long, streamlined bodies, they can sprint at speeds of 35 to 45 mph. Despite their hunting heritage, Borzois are known for their gentle and calm nature and affection towards their family. However, they are also known for being independent and a bit stubborn. Their graceful bodies can reach a height of 32 inches at the shoulder, and they have a life expectancy of 10 to 12 years, which is longer than expected for other dogs of this size.

This funny dog amused people. Viewer @lynnhgraphics proposed, "Someone, please ask him what's wrong so he can say, 'I'm fine!' while stomping off and slamming a door." Viewer @petpulsechronicles pointed out, "Bro went from, I can't believe they did this to me. To hold me human, I need emotional support." Since anger didn't get him much attention, he went for the next best thing. Viewer @klarawinterain responded, "All the pretty scents and smelly smells he had been curating... All gone." My dogs always seem to be upset when they smell fresh and clean, too. Perhaps they do like the scent they've developed over time.

Although we may provide our dogs with everything they desire, we must also give them the things they need. While this may not make them happy, their dramatic protests are undoubtedly entertaining.
