<p>[QUOTE=&quot;airedale, post: 126743, member: 4695&quot;]<b>Sorry for being off topic!</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Airedale Hybrid - Russian Dog of War - 32&quot; at shoulder 130 pounds. Invented by Russian Military circa 1950 - 5/8 Airedale, 1/8 Giant Schnauzer, 1/8 Newfoundland and 1/8 Rottweiler. The AKC registered breed is known as the Black Russian Terrier. The feet on this beautiful dog, may he rest in peace, are huge and webbed just like a Newfoundland . They extend out like a human foot. The Russians put a lot of work into this dog and that is why they used the breeds they did. The Airedale because of its Terrier characteristics ( lore has it in WW1, while used as messenger dogs, Airedales had an uncanny ability to dodge bullets.) The Giant Schnauzer because of its military background, the Newfoundland because of its natural instinct to save life and the Rottweiler so it would not be afraid of anyone or anything. Wolf&#039;s Nickolay Romanov, pictured here, the 16th BRT to enter the US, went on to his greater reward 5 years ago at 5 years old with spinal cord cancer. I had an Airedale before and have one now after him. In the Navy and Marine Corps they call people in the air wing Airedales. Go figure.</p><p>Sorry for being off topic![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
