Care
The Coton has a coat which requires brushing and combing almost every day, and requires bathing about one per week to mantain its beautiful coat. They love swimming if you have a pool in your backyard. It's recommended you let your coton use it with supervision and they, like poodles, don't "shed", meaning they don't drop hair on furniture, carpeting etc. But they do lose hair the same way; the texture of their coat causes the shed hair to be trapped in the coat. If not brushed and combed daily, this breed will mat up quickly and may require shaving. Cotons need a short walk every day for exercise, but will appreciate a play session as often as possible and have the endurance to go on a long hike. You should let your dog be free during times. Cotons love to play with other dogs. They are great with kids. They have a long life span of 14 to 20 years.

“The lifelong process of caregiving, is the ultimate link between caregivers of all ages. You and I are not just in a phase we will outgrow. This is lifebirth, death, and everything in between.... The care continuum is the cycle of life turning full circle in each of our lives. And what we learn when we spoon-feed our babies will echo in our ears as we feed our parents. The point is not to be done. The point is to be ready to do again.”
—Paula C. Lowe (20th century)
