Sparta Black Russians

Sparta Black Russians breeds black Russian terriers in Albany, OR, serving Linn County and the Willamette Valley near Portland. Emily Foster has more than a decade of experience nurturing this intelligent, versatile breed, holding roles in regional club leadership and attending annual working dog trials. Each litter originates from health-tested parents, with hip and elbow evaluations, annual cardiac screenings, regular veterinary checkups, and carefully recorded pedigrees to ensure strong working lines and overall well-being.

Puppies grow up in a household environment alongside children and farm animals, learning basic manners, crate familiarization, gentle exposure to everyday sounds, and early introduction to grooming habits. Sparta Black Russians dogs have achieved titles in obedience and tracking events, reflecting the breeder’s commitment to temperament and trainability over simple appearance points. Owners note the approachable guidance provided before and after placement, with follow-up support, socialization advice, and an open line of communication for any questions.
