About the breed, from Russian Toy Club Of America
The Russian Toy is a toy breed with a lineage that dates back to the Russian aristocracy. The Russian Toy is general a good natured imp that loves to run and play. They thrive on human companionship and will let you know if they are feeling neglected.
Russian Toys love to play. They will dash through the house or yard chasing toys as long as you can keep up. While many are willing to do nothing more than lounge in your lap all day long, content in knowing that they are the prize jewel in your home.
There is a slight attitude difference between Long Coats and Smooth Coats. Smooth Coats tend to be a little more “terrier-like” than Long Coats. However, both share a larger than life personality.
