History: Mishka and his siblings were all taken from their parents at a young age, too young to remember their faces clearly, and trained in the art of coursing wolves in their homeland of Russia.
Puppyhood
Mishka was somewhat quiet as a pup, but, being the second eldest, he tried his best to keep his younger siblings under control. Also, though Nikolia was the eldest, Mishka's attitude soon changed and he became very bold and soon gained his dominance over all of his siblings and it stayed that way until Elizar was brought there.
Teenage Years
After his cousin, Elizar, was bought by his master, Mishka tried to dominate him, but Eli was a very stubborn and headstrong teenager; he actually fought and wounded Mishka for trying to get him to submit to him. This just pissed the orange Borzoi off and he kept trying to get in command of everything his cousin did, but Elizar managed to keep the older dog off of his back. After a few months of failed attempts, Mishka finally gave up his strong hold over his siblings and left Elizar alone; insted, he made sure that his family was doing their rightful job: Coursing wolves.
Adult Years
Years later, Mishka, Elizar, and the others were all skilled in the art of coursing wolves when their master took them on a hunt. Since he was the pack leader, it was very important to him that he not only made sure that the runners were doing their job, but that he could do his jobs to the best of his ability. Mishka was to run down the wolf (or wolves) to tire them out along with Slava, Demyan, and Ivan, then come back to take it down with Elizar, Ivan, and Nikolai. Sometimes his master even let him kill the wolf he'd caught, but when his master let Elizar do it, his cousin would get too...messy with the whole thing and then their master wouldn't be able to skin the wolf correctly for its fur. Mishka went to talk to his cousin about this, but Elizar just told him to back off and do HIS job. Mishka did so, and later that night, he witnessed his aggressive cousin fighting Ivan over who got breeding rights with the only other non-blood related female in the pack. The fight ended with Elizar killing Ivan, but Mishka seemed to not care that he had died before his eyes. In fact, he actually didn't care. A few weeks later, his master bought a new sighthound to replace Ivan and he was an apprentice to Mishka: a young, inexperienced gray Borzoi named Boris. Boris was a headache to Mishka at first, but he managed to teach the younger dog the ways of coursing wolves. Months later, the remainder of the pack were on another hunt to help control the growing wolf population around a nearby town. When he and Elizar finally chased down the wolf they were after, Mishka noticed that the animal was leading them too far away from their pack and stopped. He commaned Eli to come back, too, but his stubborn cousin wouldn't listen, and, after he caught the wolf and prepared to kill it, he was ambushed by the entire wolf pack. Elizar didn't stand a chance. Mishka watched his cousin get ripped to shreds from atop a large rock and all he could think was, "Served that stubborn fool right." the orange Borzoi then left the field and went into town. He wanted out of this life. Mishka managed to board a ship sailing to New England with a few men who found out that he was onboard. After they got there, Mishka somehow disappeared from the area where the harbor was; unknown to the men from the ship, Mishka had got on a train, a couple of trains in fact, and ended up in (the city where LATT movies take place) After a few months of living there, Mishka got in an affiliation with a large group of stray dogs (the "Junkyard Dogs" of Tramp and Buster's younger years), and if he were to ever betray them, he'd be killed without a second thought. Tramp, a member of the group at that time, decided that he'd be Mishka's partner and they helped each other out...until Tramp betrayed Mishka's trust by breaking their promise that he wouldn't tell their leader what he saw Mishka doing, which was against the rules. Mishka was going to kill Tramp, but decided that he wasn't worth his time and disappeared after that.
