Papillon

Often called the "butterfly dog" for their large, wing-shaped ears, Papillons (which translates to “butterfly” in French) possess delicate features, graceful movement, and intelligence. They are surprisingly quick and light on their feet, boasting a fine-boned structure. Their long, silky coat features varying white, black, and tan markings. Despite being known for their perked, butterfly-like ears, some Papillon dogs have pendant ears (also called drop ears), which are floppier.
