Bichons are a high maintenance breed, probably the most work of all of them. They have hair as we do, it is always growing, always getting matted.

Thank you!
Sugar is 12 pounds -- she is the only one who would fit the AKC standard, the others are all too big one way or another - too long in the back, too tall at the withers, etc.
Lacey is 14 pounds.
Tasha is 15 pounds. She and Willy have dense thick coats, takes ages to dry them; they have the AKC show coat. Of course, I don't keep any of mine in a show style!
Marlin is 19 pounds.
Willy is 22 pounds and thinks he is a tiny lap dog.

Love this collection of pics you posted. I have to chuckle at Willy - the big ham is front and center! Kisses to all of your Fluffs!
That's Willy, front and center and demanding ALL the attention, ha haaa. I keep mine short as well, I have to with 5 of them, 10 cats and Dad (who is more work than all 15 together!)

So glad you enjoyed these photos!!!
