In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, interest among the nobility in this breed faded away, they began to be treated as ordinary dogs, and various theaters, circuses, wandering organ-grinders, etc. began to use them in street performances. However, after the First World War, the situation improved, and in 1934, on 18 October, the first Bichon Frize was accepted into the French Kennel Club’s studbook.
