“Russian black terriers are a part of the working group breed of dogs,” said Ward, “they are a relatively new breed and were bred by the Russian military.”
Russian black terriers (RBTs) are a giant breed which are calm, confident and self-assured. They adapt well to training and were bred to guard and protect. They are deeply loyal to and very protective of the family.
Ward and her ‘Russians’ will be taking part in some competitions at the Dogs of the World Parade on 19 July along with more than a hundred other breeds.
