The Löwchen is a small and sturdy dog sometimes known as the “little lion dog” thanks to its popular grooming style of a “lion clip.” Super affectionate, Löwchens are famous as loyal, loving companions to their people. They have been popular in Europe for hundreds of years due to their compact size, non-shedding coats, and loving personalities.
