Coton de Tulear

Known as the 'Royal Dog of Madagascar,' the Coton de Tulear is a charming companion breed famous for its soft, cotton-like white coat. These happy, clownish dogs are deeply devoted to their families and are known for their ability to walk on their hind legs to entertain people. They are remarkably hypoallergenic and lack the typical 'doggy' odor, making them excellent indoor companions.
