Both Bichon Frises and Poodles are extremely popular dog breeds in the pet world, and a large number of people raise them. With their popularity, they are inevitably compared by people.
Many people are discussing which is better, a Bichon Frise or a Poodle? Which one is more worth raising? If you also want to know, just follow me and read on!
Comparison 1: Intelligence
The intelligence of Poodles ranks second in the dog world. They are very smart and witty dogs, very clever, and can easily understand what their owners mean.
Bichon Frises are much less intelligent than Poodles in this regard. Their intelligence ranks 45th. They are not stupid, but not very smart either, just at an average level. They are definitely not as good as Poodles in understanding some things!
Comparison 2: Price
Poodles were among the first batch of pet dogs introduced to China from abroad and were widely sought – after by people. At first, their price was relatively high.
However, as more and more people raised them, and with some rumors, their price gradually dropped. An adult Poodle costs about 800 yuan!
The price of Bichon Frises has always been relatively stable. But as the number of people raising them increases, the price will drop a little more or less, probably around 1200 yuan.
Comparison 3: Personality
The personality of Poodles can be said to be the most dominant among small – sized dogs. They especially like to provoke other dogs and are very overbearing. No one can touch what belongs to them. However, they are just bullies who rely on their owners. When their owners are around, they are arrogant, but when their owners are not, they are extremely cowardly!
The personality of Bichon Frises is much gentler. They always put their owners first, so they are very clingy and quiet. They never bark randomly to disturb people and are very worry – free dogs.
Comparison 4: Obedience
As mentioned just now, Poodles are more intelligent than Bichon Frises. Logically speaking, they should be easier to train!
However, people who have raised Poodles don’t think so. Because Poodles are too smart, sometimes they are over – smart, so they have too many little tricks and poor obedience, making the training more difficult.
Although the intelligence of cute Bichon Frises is at an average level, they are superior in obedience. They are obedient to their owners, so they are easier to train than Poodles.
So, in the process of training dogs, obedience is quite important. If your dog is also very difficult to train, you can try to use some snacks to lure and reward it. This can effectively improve the dog’s obedience!
Comparison 5: Appearance
Bichon Frises and Poodles look quite similar. They both belong to the small – sized dog category and are both cute in style. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be so popular!
However, Poodles have more color options, including brown, black, and white, which meet various people’s aesthetics. Bichon Frises only have a single white color. But both are very good – looking dogs.
However, both Bichon Frises and Poodles have a common problem, that is, they are very prone to tear stains. Once they have tear stains, they are likely to become ugly and their appearance is not as good!
So, the owners who raise them must pay more attention to their tear – stain problems. Usually, you can use a towel to clean the area around their eyes more often and wipe off some secretions.
Also, pay attention to a light diet. It’s best to choose a dog food with the effect of reducing internal heat for feeding, so as to effectively manage tear stains.
