Since the 14th
century, this loveable "moving powder puff" has adorned the
laps of dog lovers ranging from royalty to celebrities and
everyone in between. Originating in the Canary Islands, the
Bichon Frise gained recognition and popularity as a distinct
breed in the 1930's with the French Kennel Club and has
since found it's way into the hearts and homes of dog lovers
everywhere.
Standing just 9 to 12 inches at the shoulder, the Bichon
Frise's incredible cuteness and sunny disposition make it a
wonderful companion. It is an ideal choice for apartment
dwellers and dog lovers with limited mobility. Although it's
exercise needs are minimal, the Bichon's grooming needs are
a bit more demanding. Frequent bathing and brushing is a
must, as are regular trips to the groomer. In gorgeous
contrast to it's black nose and large, intelligent dark
eyes, the soft, curly coat is snow white. The Bichon Frise
(translation: curly coated lap dog) makes a wonderful pet
for singles, as well as families with well-behaved, older
children. As an added bonus, Bichon Frise dogs do not shed,
making them a good choice for dog-lovers with allergies.
