OUR GIRLS

Ch. Symar-Sunburst What the Inferno

Breeder: Mark & Sydney Burnside and G. Thompson
Owners: Mark & Sydney Burnside

Flare is the stunning puppy from the Elements litter that stayed at Symar. A sweeter borzoi temperament you could not find!! Her favorite activities are swimming in the ocean, running on the beach, and following me around the house! After two failed attempts at breeding via AI, we will try once more the good old-fashioned way in 2025. | See Flare's PEDIGREE

Ch. Symar Tell The World I'm Here

Breeder: Mark & Sydney Burnside
Owners: Mark & Sydney Burnside

Very early on, Jade made it clear that she was here to stay. She flatly refused to stay with the other puppies, deciding instead that her place at night was in bed with us. Who could resist that beautiful face with those dark dark eyes?! She began her show career in late 2022, earning 8 points in just a few shows. She came back out in June, 2023 and finished in 3 days! There were no coursing events in SoCal, so that activity is on hold until later. Jade will compete towards her Junior Courser title and Grand Championship in 2025. | See Jade's PEDIGREE

Penn Black Feather at Symar

Breeder: Alexis Robertson
Owners: Mark & Sydney Burnside

Raven is from the American Whiskey litter. From the start, I knew it was going to take a special pup to come in and win over the dogs already here. Raven has done her best to make friends with all the borzoi here and even won over Elli Mae, who rules the house with an iron paw. Friendly, outgoing, and willing to please, we expect a fun ride with this girl in 2025! | See Raven's PEDIGREE

♥ FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS ♥

Ch. Sunburst Ellicit Dream, JC ROM-C

Breeders: G. Thompson and Stuart McGraw
Owners: Mark & Sydney Burnside

Elli Mae Borzoi was affectionatley referred to as our little pocket rocket. She lived to chase the lure! In the show ring, Elli exhibited incredible reach and drive; judges said she absolutely floats! As one handler friend puts it, "she leaves it all in the field." At home, she was the most laid back dog you could find, living until the age of 13 years, 2 months, and 16 days. Elli Mae is the dam of the "Elements" litter, whelped in August 2017, and the "Show and Tell" litter whelped November, 2018. Those two litters produced 8 Champions, 4 Grand Champions, one GRC and one CD. She easily qualified for her ROM-C and is only a few points short of her ROMX-C

She is the Grand-dam of the Paladin x Kismet litter whelped in 2021, the "Colors litter" (Paladin x Surprise, whelped in 2022), the "American Whiskeys" litter (Flashin' x Crush, whelped in 2023), and the singleton Symar Dark Sky Hunter (whelped in 2024). More grand-babies on the horizon! | See Elli Mae's PEDIGREE

Grand Ch. Wildwood-Symar Anything Goes

Breeders: Kay Henderson & Wyatt Delfino

Owners: Mark & Sydney Burnside

Lucy came to us at age 10 weeks and immediately captured our hearts with her personality. She finished her AKC Championship by the age of 2 and her Grand Ch. soon after. Judges invariably referred to her as "breath-taking". She retired from the ring, taking on duties in the whelping box. Lucy made her last show appearance at the Borzoi Club of California at the age of 11, winning her Veteran's class, and surviving the first two cuts for breed (pictured below, left). She enjoyed life on the sofa, living to the age of 13 years, 4 months and 16 days. Lucy is the dam of the "Cheeseburger in Paradise" litter and the grand-dam of the "Time in the City" litter. | See Lucy's PEDIGREE

Wildwood Turkish Delight, JC

Breeders: Kay Henderson and Wyatt Delfino
Owners: Mark & Sydney Burnside

Infinity was our first borzoi, bought for my husband. Unfortunately, she suffered from severe pancreatitis and was spayed, ending her show career. She enjoyed the lure and lounging about the house, living happily until two weeks shy of her 13th birthday. | See Infinity's PEDIGREE
