Which small breed has a curly white hypoallergenic coat?

The small breed with a curly white hypoallergenic coat is the Bichon Frise.

The Bichon Frise is a small companion dog whose name comes from the French bichon à poil frisé, meaning “curly-haired small dog.” Its coat is soft, densely curled, and typically pure white, although puppies may show limited beige or cream shading. The rounded, cloudlike grooming style is one of the breed’s most recognizable features.

Bichons are often described as hypoallergenic because they shed relatively little and produce less loose dander than many breeds. However, no dog is completely allergy-free, and people may react to saliva, skin particles, or other proteins rather than the hair itself. Regular brushing and professional grooming help control loose material and prevent mats.

The breed’s early history is associated with Mediterranean dogs and the Canary Islands, where Spanish sailors helped popularize related dogs. It later developed in Belgium and France and became a favored companion and performing dog in European courts.
