Explanation
During the late 1800s, Bichons became less desirable because they were used for various purposes. They were commonly used to accompany circuses, where they would perform tricks and entertain the audience. They were also seen at fun fairs, where they would participate in games and activities. Additionally, Bichons were used by organ grinders, who would travel around with their organs and the dogs would attract attention and help gather an audience. These uses of Bichons during that time period contributed to their decreased desirability as pets.

Before trimming, the dog must be completely matt- and tangle-free and for this you will need to use :-
- A.
  
  Clipper
- B.
  
  Slicker Brush
Correct Answer
B. Slicker Brush

Explanation
To ensure that the dog's fur is completely matt- and tangle-free before trimming, a slicker brush is needed. A slicker brush has fine, short wires close together that effectively remove loose hair, mats, and tangles from the dog's coat. This type of brush is gentle on the dog's skin and helps to prevent discomfort or pain while brushing. Using a slicker brush before trimming will make the grooming process easier and ensure a smooth and even trim.

- A.
  
  Cut across the bottom of the chin.
- B.
  
  Cut the chin hair about the same length as the head hair.
Correct Answer
A. Cut across the bottom of the chin.

Explanation
The Bichon Frise's head is broad, so when cutting a bell shape head, it is important to cut across the bottom of the chin. This helps to maintain the desired shape and proportions of the head. Additionally, cutting the chin hair about the same length as the head hair ensures a balanced and uniform appearance.

The crest is like a mane; it starts from the top of the head and ends by the shoulders. The crest is generally left shorter than the rest of the coat on the body
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
The given statement describes the crest as starting from the top of the head and ending by the shoulders, and being generally left shorter than the rest of the coat on the body. However, this statement is incorrect. The crest actually refers to a ridge of hair or feathers along the back or neck of an animal, such as a horse or bird. It is not limited to the head and shoulders, and it is not necessarily shorter than the rest of the coat. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

Rate this question:
6.

The Bichon Frise’s pattern calls for the coat to be about one inch long all over, as the coat outlines the natural contour of the entire body.Select two of the procedures:-
- A.
  
  Hand scissored
- B.
  
  Clippers with a long guard comb.
- C.
  
  Blade
Correct Answer(s)
A. Hand scissored
B. Clippers with a long guard comb.

Explanation
The Bichon Frise's coat is supposed to be about one inch long all over, which means it requires careful trimming and shaping. Hand scissoring is a technique that allows for precise cutting and shaping of the coat, ensuring that it follows the natural contour of the dog's body. Clippers with a long guard comb can also be used to achieve a uniform length of one inch all over the coat. Using a blade alone may not provide the desired length and precision required for this specific pattern.

Rate this question:
7.

The tail is left as long as possible and in the natural state, just tangle- and matt-free.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
The statement suggests that the tail is left in its natural state without any tangles or mats. This implies that the tail is not trimmed or altered in any way, allowing it to grow as long as possible. Therefore, the correct answer is true, indicating that the statement is accurate.

Rate this question:

- A.
  
  Poodle
- B.
  
  Terrier
Correct Answer
A. Poodle

Explanation
The correct answer is Poodle. The explanation for this is that the question mentions that the breed came from Barbet, the Water Spaniel, or even the Poodle. This suggests that the Poodle is one of the possible origins of the Bichon breed. Furthermore, the question states that the Bichons were separated into four groups, all originating in the Mediterranean region, implying that the Poodle is one of these groups. Therefore, the Poodle is the correct answer.
