It is a small breed of dog and a member of the non-sporting group. Their white puffy coat may need trimming and scissoring occasionally and should be brushed every other day. Bichon Frise do not shed, but some hairs do become loose and could entangle with the rest of the coat, causing it to mat. This breed, though small in size needs exercise too. The American Kennel Club or the AKC recognized the Bichon Frise as an official dog breed only in 1971. It helps if you have access to an enclosed backyard or field. A veterinary check up is important and it is recommended that this breed should be specifically tested for eye problems, knee dysplasia and hip dysplasia. Simply stand on one side of the grass and let another family member or second owner stand at the far distance on the other side. Bichon Frise, according to some dog enthusiasts, have happy disposition in life, in other words, happy-go-lucky animals. Taking him out on the leash to walk a few laps in the yard or even rigorous indoor games will work just fine. Their eyes are usually very dark, and these cute lap dogs are considered bouncy, playful and extremely perky in character.
