We make the acquaintance of AST in 1997 on the dog training court of N. Orel. The “Fakir” team worked there. They had a good demonstrating appearance on the dog shows and training competitions. The first AST which remained in our memory like a model of AST’s Character was Kris Gladiator. What was astonished and attracted attentions in this dog? This was unbelievable hunger for work. In the age of 2 years Kris quick learned all habits. He can transfer an ordinary command “beside” looking into his owners eyes for a long time, infinitely jump over the hurdles and with high speed fly over obstacles. In spite of the fact that he was very agile he stopped in a moment by the fixing command and demonstrated a perfect self-control. Especially we were interested in Kris’s arrest of transgressor work. Every time he attacked in full potential with demonstration of strong and active work and stayed at the same time dirigible dog, keeping the capability to react on commands. Contrary to extended at that time public opinion that AST is asocial dogs which kill the children and on the whole are dangerous to society, nobody saw from Kris the amotivational aggression even to absolutely strange people both adult and children. Opposite Kris show astonishing good-fellowship and friendliness.
        Later we had occasion to communicate and work with another representatives of this breed. As a result German shepherd who for a long time won our hearts has to be crowd and gave piece of heart to AST. And our three-years-old GSD Brig z Lotaha in this connection has to share his residence with AST puppy Rio Bueno (home name Ron).

Eralash (for his friends just Egorka) is dog with difficult destiny. Only in 2 years old he found good owner and dipped into training and showing process. In first year while defects of upbringing were removed he had a good show carrier and got the titles of Champion of Belarus, Champion of Russia, Champion of Russian Dog-fancier Club, Champion of Breed, Grand Champion of Belarus, 2xCACIB. Little by little he turned from restless naughty child and bandit into good upbringing dog. Today he is winner of the same competition as Agility, weight pulling, IPO-1 and IPO-2. But his real vocation is Russian Ring. Just here he can show his all potential. His power, speed, fearlessness, science and even humor make for Egor his own fans.

Gressi Nais like her father and grandfather is multy-purpose dog. She won Agility-debut Competition in 1 and had good results in show carrier. Further, Gressi show high points in IPO-1 not only in Belarus but abroad. She was first who got BH Certificate the APS-1 Certificate in our country. Today she is the most titled AST-girl in Belarus both in show and sport!
