BICHON FRISE

COAT AND GROOM TIPS
Regular grooming is more
than helpful with a full coated Bichon Frise, it is a responsibility. Soft and
cottony, the coat can easily become matted especially when exposed to moisture.
Some pet owners not concerned about maintaining a show quality coat and
appearance will have the hair coat clipped shorter for easier maintenance. No
one wants to remove the coat of a Bichon Frise but when it gets severely matted
it is not fair on the animal to undergo excessive de-matting.
Like many other long coated breeds hair shed can and often does remain in the
under coat until it is removed by proper brushing and combing. Hair shed not
removed will, with time or immediately upon getting damp or wet, begin to
"tangle" and "matt" whereby the hair shed both wraps and compresses around the
existing hair coat. Matts simply ruin the beauty of the Bichon Frise coat, and
severe matting causes any pet discomfort and even poor skin health.
I recommend hair shed
and matts be removed before bathing the Bichon Frise, and that it only be hand
fluff-dried

DOG RULES
1) If you stare at someone long enough,
eventually you'll get
what you want.
2) Don't go out without ID.
3) Be direct with people;
let them know exactly how
you feel by piddling
on their shoes.
4) Be aware of when to hold
your tongue, and when to use
it. Leave room in your
schedule for a good nap.
5) Always give people a friendly
greeting. A cold nose in the
crotch is most effective.
6) When you do something wrong,
always take responsibility
(as soon as you're dragged shamefully
out from under the bed).
7) If it's not wet
and sloppy, it's not a real kiss.
