Bichon Frise have cute black button eyes and white fluffy fur that make them look like very handsome snowmen.
Their easy-going temperament makes them wonderful companion dogs. They are great for first time dog owners and are fabulous apartment dogs that don't mind being left home alone.
Whatever you decide to do, they are likely to fit in. If you are keen on agility or just want to snuggle on the couch, they will adjust to whatever your lifestyle is.
Bichon Frise are quite open and welcoming to kids and love playing with them. They are also great with other animals of any kind. They don't like confrontation and prefer to walk away to avoid any kind of stress.
Bichon Frise don't lose hair but this doesn't meant that they don't require intensive grooming. Regular brushing and clipping is recommended for this breed so that their coat doesn't get matted.
