Looking at the breed standards, some of which have history, there certainly some disagreement about whether they first came to Italy,Spain or to France (the New Zealand site says France, but in the paragraph of history it says Italy). Regardless, they came from the Canary Islands, which I guess would put their country of origin as Spain? Though maybe 'country of origin' is some sort of dog breed jargon. -- Eean 19:00, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)
The articles state that bichons don't suffer from various white dog diseases...however they can contract anemia
Bichons are the cutest, most lovable dogs on the planet. They love to nest and chew on soft toys.
It's generally held that Bichons were brought from the Canary Islands by Spanish sailors and used as barter. From there they spread throughout Europe and gained particular favor with the French aristocracy in the 1400's. King Henry III is said to have carried his Bichons with him where ever he went. Either in specially made baskets that hung around his neck, or in pockets sewn into his coats. www.combsinfo.com
I have removed the following:
Bichons were first bred around the year 1300, in France; the queen at the time— Joan I of Navarre—named them bichon frisé. They were the result of breeding her poodle and a Maltese. They were the Queen's lapdog. citation needed
as no citation has appeared in a year, and I can't find anything to verify this. If someone can find a good source for this then please do so. MarpoHarks ( talk) 11:34, 29 July 2015 (UTC)

Shouldn't we rather say "breed of small dog"... it's the dog that is small, not the breed, right? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Edwardando ( talk • contribs) 13:25, 2 December 2017 (UTC)
