History

The Russian Salon dog was developed in 1996, nearly 30 years ago by Yulia Lakatosh. Russia. In 2016 The Russian Salon Dog was successfully presented to the public at the World Cynological Championship in Moscow, Russia.

The main idea of creating the breed was to obtain a classical exterior of miniature gentle decorative dogs of various colors, with erect ears, a rounded head, soft flowing long-hair and a pleasurable complaisant character, which are suitable for all size homes.

Russian Salon dog owners often prefer the abbreviation – “RUSALKA” or Mermaid. This comes from the first and last syllables of the Russian Name for the breed: RUsskaya SALonnaya sobaKA (Russian Salon Dog).

The Russian Salon dog is a cheerful and compact friend, pleasant companion and not very difficult to care for. This dog combines all the best features of its foundation breeds with excellent health. The hair of the dogs can be cut short as well as left in the natural long length. Both lengths can participate in exhibitions, due to the breed standard.

Since the coat of Russian Salon dog varies wide in color, this particular point has been adopted as the criterion for distinguishing between the two varieties of the breed: red color group and all other colors. These two varieties are exhibited and judged separately and can each be awarded.

The Russian Salon Dog is recognized by the RKF in Russia. In the United States they can be registered with The Russian Salon Dog Registry of America and are shown in FCI countries and the United States under IABCA, The International All Breed Canine Registry. https://russiansalondogclubofamerica.com/
