In the late 1800s, Bichons were best known as the "Organ Grinder's Dog," performing tricks at circuses and festivals. Primarily white (there may be darker markings around the ears or body), Bichons have a fluffy "teddy bear" appearance. Bichons are intelligent, easily trained and considered excellent with children. Perfect odorless, danderless, non-shedding dog. They do require regular grooming.
