Description: Philipe II, King of Spain from 1556 to 1598, after having received two Bolognese as a gift, thanked the donor by writing "these two little dogs are the most royal gifts one can make to an emperor". Bolognese anticipate what you want and believe that they are smarter than you. They are true companions and thrive on your attention. They are show-offs and and love to show it. Bolognese are excellent watchdogs and a great judge of character. Their dense long locks of fur form the beautiful white soft coat that you love to bury your face in. They love their whole family and must always be part of what you are doing.
