Papillon

Papillon

Character

Lively, cheerful in nature and with a very soft character; friendly with strangers, but nevertheless a good wakertje. His elegant appearance and his good character make him count many enthusiasts.
Light built and rather freel, but that does not mean that it is a weak brother, far from it.
The Belgian Spaniel has a lot of resistance and many of them reach a high age.
