Overview:
The enchanting Papillon, whose name translates to "butterfly" in French, truly lives up to its moniker with its distinctive, fringed ears that resemble delicate wings. Originating from European royalty and depicted in art as early as the 16th century, these elegant toy dogs were once known as Continental Toy Spaniels. Physically, they are small but sturdy, typically weighing between 5 to 10 pounds, with a long, silky coat that requires regular brushing to prevent tangles. Their temperament is a delightful blend of intelligence, playfulness, and affection, making them highly trainable and eager to please. Papillons are surprisingly energetic for their size, enjoying walks and mental stimulation, yet they are equally content to cuddle on a lap. They are generally well-suited for apartment living due to their compact size, and their friendly nature often makes them good companions for families with older, respectful children. While generally healthy, responsible breeders screen for potential issues such as patellar luxation and progressive retinal atrophy. Overall, the Papillon is a charming, adaptable companion that brings joy and elegance to any home.
