The Lowchen is a small size dog with a big reputation. He is also known as the Little Lion Dog. The adults typically weigh about 6 _ pounds when fully grown. This breed reaches between 10 and 13 inches in height for a fully grown dog.

Typically, the coat of a Lowchen is long and silky. It is available in almost any color. Grooming this breed of dog requires daily brushing. Since his coat is rather long, it is wise to have him professionally trimmed.

The Lowchen likes people and responds well to them. Additionally, the Lowchen is friendly and agreeable with children. Therefore, he makes a wonderful companion for families as well as individuals.
