Moscow Watchdog (Russian: Московская Сторожевая) is a breed of dog created by the Russian military to guard. It descends from crosses between the St. Bernard and the Caucasian Ovcharka. The breed is very large and weight is between 100 and 150lbs. Unlike its modern St Bernard counterparts the breed needs lots of exercise and is reportedly vigorus. They also do not drool like many of the other molossers. Until recently, Moscow Watchdogs were very hard to find outside of the Soviet Union, however are now becoming more popular in Europe and have recently reached the United States.
