My breed is the Papillon, I wanted a small dog that loved people, was full of personality but one that didn't feel like it was going to "break" and the Pap fit the bill...they do all sorts of things, like agility and obedience and they are very intelligent. Although their coat is long, it doesn't take a lot of work to keep nice, you just need to make sure their ear fringe doesn't get matted. I will probably get into breeding them at some point but until then I will just get another spayed bitch. Miss my little Pap Kalia.
