Health care and routine grooming for Black Russian Terriers
To care for this breed you will need to brush their coat weekly. This breed does not shed a lot so you may need to help them get rid of dead hair in order to prevent matting. Their coat should be trimmed about every 6 to 8 weeks. You will also need a lot of exercise. Try taking them for a long walk or jog, or take them to the local river or pond for a dip. The only health problems that seem to plague this breed are elbow and hip problems.
