The Bichon Frize is considered a wonderful pet in all respects with a playful and at the same time gentle character. Bichons get along well with other pets. By all accounts, they are great with children. In one survey, they scored high in the “snarl at children” category, but caution should be exercised whenever young children interact with dogs. The same survey found that Bichons are easy to toilet train and train, although some owners might disagree with easy toilet training.
