[2] The Romanian Raven Shepherd Dog is a natural breed originating in the Meridional Carpathian and Subcarpathian areal (old Muntenia region of Wallachia, within the Dâmbovița, Argeș and Prahova counties, and around Brașov).

The word "corb" means "raven" and the name bespeaks the dog's fur colour, which is a clear black.

The eyes are small compared with the rest of the head, almond-shaped and oblique, amber coloured, with strong pigment on the eyelids.

[1] The body is massive and sturdy, rectangular, rather long, a bit tall and has a strong skeleton with a wide-tall chest.

The fur is double, with an underneath coating, short and bushy and an external flat one, harsher and bushier.
