Russian Borzoi dog cost Rs 22 lakhs : - Alexander the Velikiy or Alex is no ordinary dog. The Russian Borzoi is arguably the only one of its kind in India at present. And he hasn't come cheap - he cost his owner a whopping Rs.22 lakh to import him and has to be kept in an air-conditioned environment.

For Jaipur-based professional dog groomer Utkarsh Rathore, getting to India the three-year-old Borzoi, a large sighthound which used to be kept by the Russian tsars, was a passion after his breeder friends in Russia told him about the breed.
"To keep dogs, the owners should have the spirit and also deep pockets," said Rathore, who has done a degree-course in grooming from California and an advanced creative and professional grooming course from Bangkok's Starwood Institute.
In March, a Chinese coal mining tycoon bought a Tibetan Mastiff for a whopping one million pounds. This is perhaps the most expensive dog in the world.
