Papillon : Complete breed guide

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

★Papillons are popular little dogs with a very spaniel type look about them and they are often referred to as being "continental toy spaniels". Over time have found their way into the hearts and homes of many people both here in the USA and elsewhere in the world and for good reason. Not only is the Papillon adorable looking, but they rank number 8 out of 79 other breeds when it comes to intelligence.

★Interestingly, both France and Belgium claim these little dogs as being native to their countries and indeed both are listed as being the breed's home whether it's the drop-eared dog known as the Phalene or the Papillon with their upright ears. The breed's name "Papillon" translated from French means butterfly which describes well their delicate appearance and lovely feathering around a dog's ears whereas "Phalene" is French for moth.
