Physical characteristics
Size
The shoulder height of male Bichon Frize and female Bichon Frize is about 9.5 inches to 11.5 inches, and the average is considered first.
If it exceeds this size range but is proven to be a very special individual, it is allowed to meet the relaxed standards. However, the height at the withers should not be more than 12 inches or less than 9 inches. The minimum height at withers scale does not apply to puppies.
Ratio
Body length (distance from the frontmost point of the chest to the last point of the buttocks) is about 1/4 more than the shoulder height. The distance from the withers to the base of the chest is approximately 1/2 the distance from the withers to the ground. Constitution: Compact, with light bones. It neither looks rough nor delicate.
Gait
The movement of the trot is free, precise and brisk. Viewed from the side, the stretching movements of the front legs and hind legs cooperate with each other, the forequarters are relaxed and light, the hind limbs are powerful in starting, and the topline remains firm. During exercise, the head and neck are slightly erect, and as the speed increases, the hands and feet tend to converge toward the core line of the body. When parting, keep a slight distance between the hind legs and the foot pads can be seen. Come over or say goodbye, the action is thorough and precise.

Around the eyes, black or very dark brown skin surrounds the eyes, which is necessary and can extend beyond the eyes and exaggerate the expression. The eye circles themselves must be black. Under-eye pigmentation or a complete lack of pigment, resulting in a dull or dull look, is an obvious fault. All colors except eye color black or dark brown are serious faults.
3. Ears
Drooping and hidden in long and vibrating hair. If you pull the ear towards the nose, the length of the auricle can extend to the center of the breath. The position of the ears is slightly higher than the level of the eyes and relatively forward of the head. So when he warns, the ears become part of the face.
4. The head
Slightly arched, allowing for an arc shape toward the eyes. Stop: Slightly clear.
5. Breath
The head is very even. The ratio of the length of the tone to the skull is 3:4. The length of the tone is the distance from the nose to the stop. The length of the skull is from Isolation from stop to occipital bone. The dotted line connecting the outer corners of the eyes and the tip of the nose creates an equilateral triangle. The surface under the eyes is slightly clearer. However, don't overdo it, resulting in a weak or tapering front face. The lower jaw is thick.
7. The nose is longer thanand often black. Lips: Dark, fine, but not droopy.

When the tail is stretched towards the head target, it can at least reach the shoulder.Long's halfway. A short tail, a tail raised perpendicular to the back, or a tail drooping backward are all serious faults. The spiral tail is a very serious fault.
