Small-breed dogs are growing in popularity in every country. For many families, they are the perfect combination of playtime and downtime. The Bichon Frise is one such dog. Its name means curly lap dog, and while like most small dogs it needs constant, proper grooming, it is also a non-shedding breed making it perfect for owners with allergies. A Bichon Frise puppy is full of life and ready to explore; it is intelligent and bold, undeterred and fearless in the face of other dogs and people alike.
Families with children love the Bichon Frise because of its lively attitude. Whether the room is full of other dogs or strange people, a Bichon Frise puppy will want to socialize and explore the scene. Regardless of their size, these dogs are loyal watchdogs and will protect children from intruders. They play hard, however, and have a tendency to nip, but they rarely bite or scratch out of anger. From puppy to adulthood, the Bichon Frise has a zest for life, and most Bichon Frise puppy names incorporate this positive disposition.

Anyone can throw on a big fake smile, tell you the things they think you want to hear, and try to sell you a Boston Terrier you may not want. A reputable Boston Terrier breeder is someone that you can ask a lot of questions of and they will not be offended and a reputable breeder is going to insist that you do your homework before buying. You will find that an honest breeder will hide nothing from you because an honest breeder has nothing to hide.
The first thing you can do to weed out the shady breeder is to check and see what national breeder registry they are listed with. The gold standard is the American Kennel Club but there are other registries so find out which one your breeder is associated with so you can see what kind of breeding standards they use when doing their business. Also check to make sure they are really listed with the registry, do not take their word on it. Remember you are checking someone out so do your own work.
