Professional Guide · BORZOI COLD WEATHER KENNEL
Winter & Cold Weather Protection for Borzois
Essential Thermoregulation & Kennel Comfort
Protocol
Borzois, with their low body fat and thin coats, are notoriously susceptible to cold weather. During winter months or in drafty kennels, a Borzoi will expend massive amounts of energy simply shivering to stay warm. The Hidez compression suit provides critical thermoregulation.
The specialized fabric traps the Borzoi's bodily heat close to the skin, while simultaneously drawing away any moisture. It forms a second skin that completely blocks cold drafts.
Beyond warmth, the gentle compression helps keep muscle groups warm rather than chilled and tight, and the calming swaddle effect helps many Borzois settle into proper rest in the kennel.
