Grooming:
Demanding. The coat of a Bichon Frise needs to be thoroughly combed everyday and requires occasional clipping to prevent it becoming too long. The coat also needs to be washed regularly to keep it white. Ensure that there are no hairs around the eyes that are causing irritation and trim the excess hair between the pads on the feet. The excess hair in the ears needs to be plucked and any dirt removed. Bichon Frise do not moult and the dead hairs need to be removed with a brush.

Exercise:
Bichon Frise adapt themselves to the family activities to fulfill their exercise needs.

History:
The Bichon Frise have a long history as they originated from the Mediterranean Barbet – a dog with a thick curly coat who was once used for water retrieving. Originally known as the 'Barbichon', the French shortened the name to Bichon and added 'Frise' which means curly or frizzy. The colour of the Bichon Frise became established after cross-breeding with the Maltese Terrier. The Poodle is the best known breed to have evolved from the early Bichon Frise.

Physical Characteristics:

General Appearance: Dazzling white, proud, and alert.
Colour: Pure white. Dark skin is preferable.
Coat: Fine, silky with soft corkscrew curls 7-10cm (3-4in) long.

Additional Comments:

Tear staining around the eyes is common with the Bichon Frise and there are lotions that can help to reduce or remove these marks.
Potential owners of the Bichon Frise need to be committed to ongoing grooming demands.
