Prepare for unexpected vet bills
 Coton de Tulears are the national dog of Madagascar, where they were first developed as companion animals to royalty at some point during the sixteenth or seventeenth century. They are intelligent and curious animals who typically make friends where ever they go, enjoying the company of humans, canines, and even other animals, although some can be a bit shy with strangers if they are not properly socialized. It is important that these playful little dogs receive both mental stimulation and physical exercise on a daily basis to remain healthy and happy.Â
Coton de Tulear dogs are bright, happy dogs that truly enjoy playing and cavorting. While these dogs would love nothing more than to play with their family all day long, as pet parents we sometimes have obligations that need to be met even when our dogs would prefer to be entertained by us. This is when toys that your dog can play with by themselves come in handy as a way to entertain your pooch without having to shirk on your duties. There are many different types of toys available to keep even the busiest of Coton De Tulears happy and busy, both store-bought and handmade.
The first official Canine Freestyle Dance organization was formed in British Columbia in 1991, but this engaging activity first gained notice in the late 1980s. Dogs and their handlers, quite often a pet parent, perform a series of tricks or specialized heelwork to a musical composition, usually for an audience. The routines are carefully choreographed and can be either dramatic or humorous, and can be as complex or as simple as the dance team would like it to be. Coton de Tulear breed dogs are exceedingly easy to train, form very close bonds with their owners, and they delight in showing off making this a fun activity that they are likely to excel at.
Coton de Tulear dogs, with their cottony white coats and big brown eyes, tend to be very photogenic. They are also very people oriented and don’t mind showing off in the least, and they often thrive in the spotlight. They tend to be naturally lighthearted and are sometimes referred to as comical or clownish, making them excellent candidates for a great photoshoot, either on their own or with their families. There are several professional photographers that specialize in taking photographs that involve pets, but it can also be a fun diversion to stage a more casual photoshoot on your own.Â
The Coton de Tulear is a small companion dog that is happiest when they are able to spend time with their chosen humans and enjoy training. They are bright and curious animals who love the mental stimulation of toys and puzzles, but sturdy and athletic enough to handle more active endeavors such as freestyle dancing.Â
