WELCOME TO THE
PAPILLON INFORMATION SITE

The Papillon/Phalene is a wonderful little dog who is beautiful, intelligent, active, friendly, and devoted to his person. Although he is small, don't be fooled into thinking this is a regular lap dog. The Papillon reigns as one of the top breeds in AGILITY because he is agile, fast, and has boundless energy. He excels in competitive OBEDIENCE because he is quick to learn new commands and because he loves working with his person. He is one of the few toys seen in TRACKING because he loves nothing more than to explore and conquer. Yet, he does all this with a constantly upbeat and lively personality and a deep devotion to his person.

This website was created to help those interested in learning about the Papillon/Phalene. While the Papillon is a delightful breed, don't assume this breed is without fault. Challenging to housebreak, vocal, and high energy level are just some of traits that many owners would rather live without.
