Gentle Power

Gentle Power is a kennel in Burnsville, North Carolina, in the Blue Ridge Mountains region near Asheville, focused primarily on black Russian terriers and also raising French bulldogs.

Tatiana Semenova, the kennel's owner, brings an unusual background to her breeding program: she holds a PhD in molecular biology and genetic engineering, and her academic grounding in genetics directly shapes how she evaluates and selects dogs. That scientific perspective, combined with her background as a former competitive Judo athlete and her studies in acupuncture and massage, informs the way she assesses structure and movement, both in the ring and in daily life.

The kennel's black Russian terriers are actively shown in conformation, and the dogs are raised as full household companions rather than kennel dogs. Families looking for black Russian terrier puppies in North Carolina will find that the program emphasizes character, intellect, and working versatility alongside show presence. French bulldogs round out the breeding program as a secondary breed.
