The Papillon is sometimes called the Continental Toy Spaniel, Epagneul nain Continental, Butterfly Dog, or Pap. It's not unreasonable. In fact, Papillon translates to Butterfly in native French. It goes back several hundred centuries, 7 to be exact, in Europe. Italians depicted them quite a lot in the Renaissance. Italian frescoes are rife with them. Much of the breeding history about them is known through frescoes. The royal court ladies were the only group that could afford these expensive lap dogs. French breeders later bred more amenable, charming characteristics into them. Today, they're used for competitions of obedience, agility, and cool tricks. They're also great watchdogs. It has enormous butterfly ears that fan out in erect triangular form. They remind some people of elves' ears - pointy and noticeable in proportion to the head. It's an ancient toy breed that was bred exclusively for its ears. Breeders are often hesitant to give this puppy up to potential pet owners with very small children. Rough play can seriously injure the dog. Breeders jealously guard this breed from just any owners. The breeding community is active and zealous toward ensuring that these dogs end up in safe hands. Since litters have just 2 to 3 puppies, waiting lists are often seen. Their nose and muzzle is thinner than their head, and it tapers off to the nose. There is sometimes a white rim around the nose, and it's often pronounced. The Papillon has an elongated, far-reaching, plumed tail that arches over its back. Many people referred to it as the Squirrel Spaniel. Sometimes, its ears hang down, and these versions are called Phalene Papillon. It has a height of 8 to 11 inches at the withers for dogs and bitches. Bitches weigh 7 to 9 pounds, and dogs weigh 8 to 10 pounds. It has a white coat with patches of any color that cover it. Their barking is troublesome for some people in apartments because they bark at any adjoining noises, especially those of incoming tenants. This can be disturbing for neighbors and owners. They can live up to 16 years too. It needs its nail and teeth clipped and cleaned on a regular basis. Moreover, its long, shimmering coat needs daily brushing. There is no danger in bathing or shampooing when necessary. The Papillon loves human association and camaraderie. It's intelligent, eager, and bright & cheery. It has long legs that give it a quick, graceful gait. It's prone to loose kneecaps, eye problems, and a soft spot on the skull. They require intense socialization from early to ensure maturity as adults. They're petite, graceful, and bright-eyed. They're great at critical thinking and problem solving, almost uncannily. Papillons are excellent for the elderly and seniors.
