About the Coton De Tulear
The Coton de Tulear, also known as the “Royal Dog of Madagascar,” is a small, robustly sturdy breed standing between 9 and 11 inches high and weighing 8 to 13 pounds. Their soft, cotton-like white coat is a defining feature, and they’re known for their clownish and lighthearted personality. These witty companions form remarkably tight bonds with their humans, providing amusement, comfort, and unwavering companionship. They even have a knack for walking on their hind legs! Learn more
