GCHB CH NOVA NOIR'S BLOOD UPON THE SNOW

Black Russian Terrier

The Black Russian Terrier (BRT) is a large and robust working breed developed in the former Soviet Union for military and guard work. Known for its intelligence, courage, and loyalty, the breed excels in protection roles and thrives only in a home with an experienced handler who can meet the dog’s physical and mental needs. The Black Russian Terrier, also known as the "Black Pearl of Russia," was developed in the 1940s and ‘50s by the Red Star Kennel, a Soviet military program aimed at creating a versatile working dog.
