Coton de Tulear and Coton de Tulear pictures
The Coton de Tulear is a relative to the Bichon-type dogs and the
Italian Bolognese. Coton is the French word for Cotton. Like the
name suggests the most conspicuous feature of the Coton De Tulear
is its coat, which is cottony or fluffy rather than silky; it has
a long topcoat. Some have slightly yellowish markings on the ears.
This little dog is very affectionate and gets along well with children,
other dogs and animals. The Coton De Tulear is very friendly, gentle,
affectionate, and alert. This breed is very sociable. It is very
devoted and attached to its home and masters - wanting always to
be in their presence and trying its best to please; one of its most
endearing traits is a tendency to jump and walk on its hind legs.
Full of tricks and surprises to fulfill its master's every wish.
The Coton makes a perfect family dog and great watchdog. The Coton
learns quite quickly but can be a little bit stubborn. Although
it is intelligent and eager to work, it does have a mind of its
own. It makes a very good companion to children. |
