A rare breed, Coton de Tulears (Cotons) shed little and are a good breed for allergy sufferers. Cotons grow highly attached to their family; thus, some Cotons develop separation anxiety and are shy around strangers. A bright, happy-go-lucky companion dog, the Coton enjoys clowning, cavorting and following their special person. Witty companions, Cotons provide amusement, comfort and companionship.
