I’m now aware that’s a breed, but I had to ask google how someone managed to mate a dog and a butterfly.

They get their name from the long whispy hair beneath their ears that runs down their neck, giving the ears and mane a ‘butterfly wings’ shape. I’ve got a papillon x rat terrier mix (rat-a-pap), I swear the papillons, they’re a type of dog that knows how incredibly smart and pretty they are. 😄
