Entrenamiento
American Eskimo Dog
- s will cause them to shut down or become defensive. They learn by watching; owners often report their Eskies learning to open crates or doors by observation.
Bichon Frise
- They learn tricks quickly but need massive repetition for house training
- Never scold for accidents - increases anxiety and makes it worse
- Highly food motivated - use treats but watch calories
- Crate training essential but introduce carefully to avoid panic
Consideraciones de Bichon Frise
Bred for centuries solely to be companions - genetically wired to be with humans constantly. Cannot tolerate being alone for more than 2-4 hours. Isolation causes destructive chewing, self-mutilation (licking paws raw), and relentless barking.
Notoriously difficult to house train - small bladder and stubborn streak. Many owners report accidents well into adulthood. Expect 6-12 months to be reliable, compared to 3-4 months for most breeds.
Professional grooming required every 4-6 weeks at $50-100 per visit ($650-1,200 annually). Hair grows continuously and mats easily. Skipping leads to painful matting requiring shave-down.

| Mamíferos Pequeños | Supervision required | Safe with rabbits/guinea pigs - more likely to be bullied by a rabbit than hurt it |
| Aves / Reptiles | Caution advised | Safe - lacks terrier 'snap' reflex; generally safe around caged pets |
