Bichon Frise Dog Breeders

Looking for a Bichon Frise breeder? Glossy websites and cute puppy photos make it hard to know what a kennel is really like. Pawthenticity is a nonprofit that collects public government inspection records into free, searchable breeder profiles, so you can see what inspectors found before you bring a Bichon Frise home.

Pawthenticity tracks 132 licensed kennels that breed Bichon Frises. They average 104 dogs of all breeds, and the largest has 430. More than half (86 kennels, or 65%) have been cited by inspectors, for 1,419 citations in total. The kennels are in 15 states, mostly Missouri (37), Ohio (31), Pennsylvania (14), Iowa (12) and Wisconsin (9). Hobby and unlicensed breeders aren't included.
