Wof!
We are a rather new breed, that was started in the Soviet Union in 1951. Our breed specification and the standard (written in 1962) was accepted for standardification by the All-Union Canine Council under the Soviet Ministry of Agriculture in 1966, and later in 1997 by the Russian kynological federation, РКФ (RKF).
Members of Russkaya Tsvetnaya Bolonka, bolonki are a friendly, vivid and balanced natured breed, bred to be a small companion dog.
Sadly bolonki have not been recogniced by the FCI (Federation Cynologique Internationale) yet, but hopefully soon.
