It's A Squirrel, A Butterfly, No A Papillion!
- 14/05/2011
No one who comes face to face with the breed of dog known as the Papillion can ever mistake it. This small, friendly, happy go lucky dog looks as though he is wearing a feathery butterfly mask. In fact, Papillion is French for butterfly and this dog is so named because of his trademark ears and their feathering does indeed look like butterfly wings. However, when viewed from the backside this dogs thick log tail that curls high over the backside has also earned it the nickname of the squirrel dog. No matter what he looks like you can bet that this little dog is all dog with a personality much larger than its actual size.
