COAT
The fine, long hairs create a curly coat with a cotton like texture. There is no undercoat. The colour is always white with a few yellow to dark grey patches (especially by the ears).
CARE REQUIRED
The Coton de Tulear's coat needs grooming with brush and comb several times each week. They do not shed hair but the dead hairs can be brushed out and then removed from the brush.
Remove excess hair between the pads of the feet and in the inner ear. The Coton de Tulear does not need a bath more than once or twice a year which is adequate to keep the coat clean
