#13 His beautiful coat needs careful care.
Comb and brush your Coton de Tuléar daily. The animal enjoys this attention very much, and the fur must not become matted, as it only grows very slowly and knots should not be cut out. Please make sure that the fur on the paws remains short and does not hinder the little one when walking.
#14 Since the Coton de Tuléar is still quite rare among pedigree dogs and, unlike fashion dogs, has not yet massed, there are no known breed-specific susceptibilities or hereditary diseases.
Your Coton de Tuléar is therefore likely to be in robust health, living to an average age of 15 years.
