like; balance is essential. The male dogs should
be larger and more masculine in appearance.
They should be proportionate, and only very
slightly longer than tall – this can be a little more
pronounced for females. Males stand at 70 to
78cm at the withers and weigh roughly 50 to 60kg
with females 66 to 74 cm and weighing 45 to 50kg.
Taller specimens are allowed provided they are
proportional and of excellent breed type.
The Russian Black Terrier has a solid black
weather-resistant double coat that is rough

acceptable. A long dense coat is present on the
legs. One of the hallmarks of the breed is the very
well developed head furnishings, moustache
and beard, accentuating the massive “brick-like”
rectangular head and large, black nose. For show
purposes, the Russian Black Terrier’s coat should
be trimmed and clipped in order to display its

intimidating when visitors come into their territory
regardless of how much socialization the dog
has, and you may need to be prepared to crate
them when unknown guests or repairmen arrive.
If you want a dog that happily greets everyone
who comes to the home, you might be better to
consider different breed.
Outside the home, the Russian Black Terrier
can be aloof with strangers and take their time
considering whether a person is a threat. Luckily,
one of the specific features of the breed is they
respond to a situation rapidly, and quick to settle
afterwards. Also, they are happy to be guided by
the owner. So, your friends will quickly become
their friends.
Mature Russian Black Terriers can be very gentle,
tolerant and respectful towards children whom
they are raised with. The same applies to other
family pets of all sizes. However, young Blackies
are large, active and often unaware of their size
and power. Little children or small pets may be
accidentally knocked over, stood on etc. Please
make sure that you supervise all play.

hereditary eye conditions for registered dog breeds. The Australian Veterinary Association
        and the Australian National Kennel Council both endorse the programme.
