The Bichon Frise, recognized around the world for his perfectly coiffed pure white coat, is an affectionate companion for the whole family. Beyond being pretty, he is sturdy, adaptable, highly trainable, and eager to compete. The breed excels at dog shows, obedience and agility trials, and as therapy dogs. Mapping the spread of the bichon-type dogs around Europe, the opening chapter of this volume connects the white fluffy dots;from the Bichon Frise (of France) and its relatives, the Lowchen (also of France), the Coton de Tulear of Madagascar, the Bolognese of Italy, and the Havanese of Cuba.
