Breed Information - Lowchen

The Lowchen:  With its long, silky coat trimmed in the traditional 'lion clip', this dog is easily distinguished from other members of the bichon group.  The tail is clipped along part of its length, leaving just a plume of hair, completing this attractive, lively breed's distinctive parody of the 'king of the beasts'.

This breed found favour with the European aristocracy at an early stage in its development.  It featured in a painting by Goya of the Duchess of Alba in the 1700's, however its popularity declined to the extent that by 1960 it was considered to be the World's rarest dog breed.

The Maltese Terrier - Breed Information

The Maltese derives his name from the island of Malta, off the coast of Italy.  The Maltese is a very ancient breed, and was know in the Mediterranean before the time of Christ.  He is a handsome, intelligent dog, always inquisitive, and makes a wonderful pet.  He is very popular in the USA.

The coat is single, that is without undercoat, it hangs long, flat and silky over the sides of the body almost, if not quite, to the ground.  The long head-hair may be tied up in a topknot or it may be left hanging.

Mitch & Luka The Spanish Water Dogs

Spanish Water Dogs need to be shaved down at least once a year and must be done using the same blade all over so the hair grows back evenly.  Spanish Water Dogs are never ever blow dryed or brushed so they thats why they should be cut once a year to allow the skin to breathe and get rid of any matts.
