Also known as Little Lion Dog, Petit Chien Lion
A lion-clipped charmer with a bright, sunny nature
The Lowchen, or little lion dog, has been a cherished companion in Europe for centuries and is traditionally clipped in a lion trim. It is lively, affectionate and eager to please, and its long, wavy coat needs regular brushing to stay tangle-free.
