2012 started as another amazing year with Zil winning the First Best in Specialty Show at the Black Russian Terrier

Zil is the first (and still only as of October 2015) Black Russian Terrier in the history of the breed to win the Triple Crown consisting of the BRT Nationals, Eukanuba and Westminster. Sprinkle on his fantastic health certificates and working titles and you have one amazing dog! He is also the first US bred winner of both the Nationals and Westminster Kennel Club. Zil is now the #1 Black Russian Terrier in the history of the Breed in number of BRTS defeated in show. He is truly an unbelievable dog!
