Welcome To Our Bichon Frise Picture Page.

Bichon Frise is a white fluffy dog whose gay temperament is evident from the way he moves about with his tail held high. He is a happy dog that likes to run accompany his owner everywhere within the house and outside.

Bichons are extremely friendly and sociable. They are devoted and dependent on their masters. They sulk when they are left alone for long periods. Bichons are not dominant and respond well to training as long as it is not harsh. Harshness only makes him spiteful. He would rather learn tricks than formal obedience. You can win him over with food treats as rewards.

Bichons are independent minded. They can be obstinate and too smart for you, if you are not careful. You will have to consistently let them know that you are the leader and they have to obey you. It is quite a daunting task to train the Bichon Frise for housebreaking. It is relatively difficult to potty train a Bichon so you need to be prepared to have lots of patience. Although intelligent, the breed is not always cooperative with training methods. Just remember, it is not impossible to housebreak this breed of dog but plan on spending time getting through the process. Additionally, you can use crate training, which is more effective.

You might find your Bichon too independent during obedience training, which can be frustrating. The best option for success is to work with the puppy from a young age. Begin with training tips such as sit, stay, come, and lie down. But keep it simple and supportive. Bichons can be quite aggressive and negative at times. So, for your own safety and for the sake of teaching him, never use physical force on him. He might even bite you when you least expect it. You can achieve better success if you speak to him in a loving voice, and pat him for his good behavior. Don’t forget to give him some favorite treats for positive reinforcement. Very soon you will find your Bichon Frise eating out of your hands.

It is a tough job to train Bichons for house breaking, therefore, your most reliable tool is the crate which he will instinctively not soil. However, go slow with crate training. Bichons are hard to train, but their positive attitude and pleasant temperament is more than satisfying at the end of the day. After you have trained your Bichon, you will find him very obedient. He is an intelligent dog that has a mind of his own. You will have to work hard to seek his cooperation while training him. Just be patient and persistent.
