answer · Russian Black Terrier
100 pound lap dog energy. Guests expect tough, get cuddles in five minutes. Happens constantly. They are gentle with kids in our house but still need space when overwhelmed. Supervise like any big dog. Still figuring it out like everyone else, Marcus.

I find the shedding to be a big issue. Their coat needs regular maintenance to keep it manageable. Also, they can be difficult with obedience if not trained properly.
question · Russian Black Terrier
Is it just mine, or does your Russian Black Terrier quietly watch everything before reacting?
answer · Russian Black Terrier
The funniest thing my dog did was when he got so excited for his meal that he jumped up, accidentally knocking over his bowl. Food went everywhere, and he just sat there looking shocked. It was like he couldn't believe his own clumsiness, but he quickly dove in to clean up the mess.

She barks initially but calms down quickly. It's all about her assessing the situation.
answer · Russian Black Terrier
I groom my Russian Black Terrier about once a month. Their thick coat requires regular attention to avoid matting.

Let them choose who to greet.
answer · Russian Black Terrier
Never runs out. Ever. Morning run plus afternoon training or we pay for it at night. People think more fetch equals more tired. For this breed it often means more fit and still ready to go. Still figuring it out like everyone else, Marcus.
