The Bicon Frise is a very loving breed who almost always want to make their owner happy Being a pert of the family is a high priority The breed is a great choice for the first time dog owner or a family with young kids.. The Bichon has a light bark and can be noisy as well as difficult to paper train. However, the bichon is very happy with tons of energy, a outgoing persona, and is a spot on member of the family.

Puppies sometimes have beige to apricot markings, over time these will get lighter. Often times the bichon may have cream or apricot in their ears and head. But this will most likely fade to totally white.. It is essential to get the puppy used to groomong as early as possible, the whole ordeal may test your patience but requires soft handling so he may be ready to enjoy your loving home.

This breed is excellent at performing tricks and is extremely smart. Slow to grow up and the male side is a little easier to train. Traing the breed should begin at an early stage. The Bichon works well with food treats along with the leash and collar. Training must be gentle and firm,

Bichons are known to be intelligent and train easily, which made them popular favorites for circus acts. On the downside, bichons are prone to liver shunts. They weigh about 10 to 18 pounds, depending on size and are classified under four categories: the Havanese, Bolognese, Maltaise, and Tenerife, from which the Bichon Frise ultimately descended. Bichons require a moderate amount of exercise, including walking daily, but they make perfect indoor dogs. They were the popular choice of dog that Italian sailors used for bartering during medieval times and were the preferred choice for bartering because they were very friendly and made good traveling companions.

The Bichon Frise is a breed that is sweet tempered, merry, and eager, always wanting to please his owners and family. They love to spend time with their family and loves interaction with humans and other animals. The Bichon Frise is a cute little "puffy" dog. This is a small but sturdy dog who can be taken on family trips, and will be sad if you leave him at home. He is a good family dog and will love everyone in his "pack.

Remember to treat these dog with care. Of course this should go without saying as it applies to all dogs. Bichons are very fun to be around but watch out for the "Bichon Bolt". That is why they should always be on a leash during walks.

You will have many hours of fun and enjoyment and others will be attracted to you and your dog because they radiate such energy and fun.

Be sure to keep them groomed at least monthly but not less than every four months. It will cost you about 50 USD to get them trimmed. I recommend the puppy cut as this is shorter ant will last longer.

Finally, the bichon has hair and not fur so if you are allergic to pets they may be a good choice for your home.
