Ruselka was one of the 2 bitches in this litter, the other passed away @ young age due to a cardiac arrest, as did one of the brothers. The 3rd lived to be 10. Ruselka was a sweet girl though she could behave like Imperial Highness, looking down her long nose as if to say: "Have you been introduced to me?" and, meanwhile turning off her head: "Don't think so.." Very embarrassing for the well willing visitor....and her daughter Rostania did the same one day....what do you mean, inherited traits??
