What are the characteristics of Bichon

What are the characteristics of the Bichon Frise? The Bichon features an even, well-proportioned body with an adult height between 9 inches and 12 inches at the shoulder; the Bichon’s coat is pure white with a double coat, the inner coat soft and delicate and the outer coat rough and hard; the Bichon’s tail is hairy and curls behind, but cannot be spiral. The Bichon Frise is very well proportioned, while the height of the Bichon should be between 9.5 inches and 11.5 inches. If some Bichons are slightly taller, but all indicators and appearance are very standard and proportionate, then they can be relaxed a bit. But no matter what, a good purebred Bichon Frise should not be less than 9 inches tall at the shoulder and more than 12 inches tall. Beyond this range, it cannot be considered a first class purebred Bichon Frise. The Bichon Frise’s eyes are round and in the front of the head; the best eye color is black or dark brown, with a circle of black or brown skin surrounding the Bichon’s small round eyes. Overly large or protruding eyes, almond-shaped eyes, and crooked eyes do not meet the criteria for a purebred. If the Bichon’s eyes are not black or dark brown, but some other color, then it is not a purebred Bichon. The Bichon’s ears hang down and are hidden in the long, flowing coat. If the ears are pulled toward the nosepiece, the length of the ear extends to the middle of the muzzle. The ears are positioned slightly higher than the level where the eyes are and are more forward of the head. So when he is alert, the ears become part of the face. The Bichon Frise’s tail has a lot of hair, and the tail is positioned flush with the back line and gently curled behind, so the hair on the tail rests on the back. When the tail is extended toward the head, it reaches at least halfway to the shoulder rung of the horse. A low tail position, a tail raised to a position perpendicular to the back, or a tail that droops backward are all serious defects. A spiral tail is a very serious defect.
