Mary Schaper & Kahla Johnson

Beautiful Black has been breeding Black Russian Terriers since 2009. Founders Kahla and G. Johnson fell in love with the breed and never looked back. Over the years, they have produced multiple Champions and Grand Champions, as well as exceptional family companions. They are recognized for their commitment to excellent health, sound structure, and beautiful movement. Breeding to the Black Russian Terrier standard, they maintain solid pedigrees and focus on preserving and improving the breed. In 2019, Mary Schaper began mentoring under Kahla and will become Kahla’s successor. Working together, they have imported two dogs from Europe to enhance genetic diversity within their litters. Currently, they are proud to be campaigning Beautiful Black Eli the Great, who is ranked the #5 Black Russian Terrier in the country.
