Let's talk Bichon Frisés
It’s hard to describe the Bichon Frisé without using the word ‘fluffy’. Their hair is practically cloud-like in its softness although the bouffant look is optional (they aren’t born symmetrically groomed). And while they don’t shed, Bichon Frisés definitely need daily attention paid to grooming to keep that beautiful coat from matting. Naturally affectionate and ultra-friendly, Bichon Frisés don’t always discern between people they know and people they don’t, greeting both with tail-wagging enthusiasm. Even so, the Bichon Frisé’s temperament is one of the pleasures of this playful breed.
