I have owned two Poochon's and they have both been the best pets I have ever had. Great with kids and very active and loving. The Poochon is very protective of his family and keeps a watchful eye out for intruders or stangers at all times. Sometimes they forget they are small animal. My Poochon loves a walk and hits every puddle insight with her beautifyul white fur. The Poochon is easy to train because they are so willing to please you, however they will challenge you a few times and if you give in you will have a very spoiled pup that can run the house. I have never had one health issue with my two dogs and one of them is 7 years old. The hair on the Poochon is so much nicer then the Bichon, the hair has soft curls and with baths and some brushing you never have to take them in to be groomed. The Poochon loves water and will swim in the pool on hot days and enjoy every second of it. I would say the Poochon is a well rounded dog.
