Bichon Frisé

The Bichon Frisé has its origins in the Mediterranean region, likely descending from water spaniels, and became particularly popular in France and Spain during the Renaissance where it was a favorite of European nobility. It is a cheerful, gentle, and playful breed known for its affectionate personality, sociability with strangers and other pets, and its famously powder-puff white coat. This breed was developed as a companion dog and entertainer, historically used by sailors for trade and later performing in circuses and street entertainment.
