What is a Bichon Frise?

The Bichon Frise is a small companion breed of roughly 3 to 5 kg with a white, curly, low-shedding double coat. Famously cheerful and sociable, it has been a lap-and-family dog for centuries and lives 14 to 15 years.

Curious Tails is an AVS licensed pet shop at 2 Balestier Road. We match by lifestyle first, and the Bichon suits one kind of home especially well: one where someone is usually around and grooming is part of the deal.

Bichon Frise Temperament: Sunshine That Wants an Audience

The Bichon Frise is the breed people describe as "always happy," and for once the reputation is accurate. This is a merry, gentle, people-loving little dog that greets everyone as a friend, plays without rough edges, and settles into a lap the moment one becomes available.

Here is the honest part we lead with, from two years of matching puppies to families: all that cheerfulness runs on company. In a home with someone usually around, a Bichon is a delight. In an empty home from 8am to 6pm, that same sociability can turn into whining and separation anxiety.

With children the Bichon is one of our safer picks: sturdy enough for gentle play, patient by nature, and rarely snappy. For very boisterous toddlers, the slightly larger Cockapoo remains the most forgiving choice.

Can a Bichon Frise Be Left Alone During Work Hours?

Honestly, this is where you should pause. Like the Maltipoo and Bichonpoo, the Bichon Frise copes poorly with long stretches alone, because company is what the breed was made for. If someone is home for most of the day, a family member, a retiree, a helper, or you working remotely, a Bichon thrives.

If your home is empty from 8am to 6pm every weekday, we will say so plainly, and often point you to a more independent breed instead. See our Cavapoo puppies, which handle alone time more comfortably.

Good fit if

  • Someone is usually home during the day
  • A family member, retiree or helper is around
  • You work remotely most days

Bichon Frise Size, Coat and Lifespan

Honest numbers, including the grooming commitment most listings gloss over.

Bichon Frise Size, Coat and Lifespan
TraitWhat to expect
Adult weightRoughly 3 to 5 kg
HeightAround 23 to 28 cm at the shoulder
CoatWhite, curly, low-shedding double coat; the loose hair stays in the coat until brushed out
Lifespan14 to 15 years, one of the longer-lived breeds we carry
ExerciseAbout 30 minutes a day, plus indoor play and company
Shedding & allergiesAmong the most allergy-tolerated breeds, though no dog is truly allergen-free; the trade is real grooming

How big do Bichon Frises get? A healthy adult sits at 3 to 5 kg: compact, sturdy for its size, and naturally suited to flat living. The 14-to-15-year lifespan is dependable with good care, which makes the grooming routine a long-term commitment worth being honest about upfront.

Bichon Frise Price in Singapore (September 2026): What You'll Pay and What's Included

How much is a Bichon Frise in Singapore? As of September 2026, local listings run from about $2,400 to $12,800. At Curious Tails a Bichon Frise is $3,888 to $5,988, all-in, with the starter kit, delivery and first training lesson included.

Typical Singapore market

  • Bichon Frise listings range from about $2,400 to $12,800
  • Price usually not published; enquiry required
  • Show-line labels priced at a premium
  • Starter supplies, training and delivery charged separately

Curious Tails

  • $3,888 to $5,988, printed right here
  • $500+ starter kit with 30+ items included
  • Free home delivery with the playpen set up before you arrive
  • Free first lesson with an AVS-certified trainer, plus free boarding after deposit

Why is our price printed? We don't carry the marketing spend the bigger names do, and we'd rather win on value and word of mouth. Compare the full picture on our transparent puppy pricing page, and plan the ongoing costs with the first-year puppy budget guide.

The $500+ Starter Kit Every Bichon Frise Goes Home With

Every Bichon Frise leaves us with a starter kit worth $500 and up: more than 30 items across eight categories, a playpen, a carrier, grooming tools, small-breed puppy food, outdoor gear, toilet training supplies, oral health care, and toys. For a curly-coated breed like the Bichon, the brush and the grooming routine start on day one.

On delivery day, Nelson or Kim walks you through every item: how to use it, and how it fits into your Bichon's daily care. Most of the questions new owners would otherwise ask later are answered before we leave your home.

See the full 30+ item kit breakdown, category by category.

Is a Bichon Frise Right for Your Lifestyle?

We ask about your routine before recommending any breed. Here's the honest short version for a Bichon Frise.

Is a Bichon Frise Right for Your Lifestyle?
Your situationOur honest take
Someone home most of the day (family, retiree, helper, remote work)Ideal. This is the Bichon home; the company is exactly what they want
Family with gentle childrenGreat fit. Sturdy for a small breed, patient, and playful without rough edges
Allergy-sensitive householdOne of the best picks we carry, though no dog is allergen-free
Grooming feels like a chore, not a ritualReconsider. This coat needs real upkeep; a smooth-coated Mini Dachshund is the low-maintenance route
Nobody home 8am to 6pm on weekdaysReconsider. A Bichon may fret; an independent Cavapoo is usually the kinder match

Not sure the Bichon Frise is your match?

We'd rather talk you out of the wrong breed than sell you the wrong dog. Message us your daily routine and we'll tell you straight.

Bichon Frise vs Bichonpoo: Which One Fits Your Home?

The Bichonpoo is half Bichon Frise, so the two share the white curls, the love of company, and the flat-friendly size. The honest differences: the purebred Bichon carries the classic powder-puff double coat and a more predictable adult look, while the Bichonpoo's Poodle side brings a slightly lighter coat, more colour options, and often a touch more spring.

Grooming effort is similar either way, with the purebred coat needing marginally more discipline, and with us the price, the starter kit, and the aftercare are identical. If nobody is home during weekdays, neither is the right pick, and we'll steer you to a more independent breed instead of taking the sale.

Weighing the two? See our Bichonpoo puppies, or message us your routine and we'll tell you straight.

Quick comparison

  • Bichon Frise: purebred, classic white powder-puff coat, 3 to 5 kg
  • Bichonpoo: Bichon x Poodle, lighter coat, more colours, 3 to 6 kg
  • Same price, same starter kit, same aftercare either way

Keeping a Bichon Frise in an HDB flat

The Bichon Frise is named on the HDB-approved breed list, so you can keep one in an HDB flat. HDB allows one dog of an approved breed per flat, and the Bichon's compact 3 to 5 kg size sits comfortably within the small-breed rules. Every Bichon Frise we place has its dog licensing completed at purchase, so the paperwork is handled for you.

Is a Bichon Frise HDB-approved? Yes, by name on the list, and it has been a Singapore flat favourite for decades. Just mind the one-dog-per-flat rule, and if you already have a dog, message us first so we can check your situation.

Read HDB's guidelines on keeping pets

The rules in brief

  • The Bichon Frise is named on the HDB-approved breed list
  • One dog of an approved breed per HDB flat (AVS limits of ownership)
  • Condo and landed homes: up to three dogs, subject to your estate's own pet rules

Grooming the Powder-Puff Coat in Our Humid Climate

We'll say it plainly: the Bichon Frise is the highest-grooming breed we carry, and pretending otherwise sells you the wrong dog. The curly double coat traps loose hair, which is why it barely sheds, and that same trap mats quickly if ignored. Brush 3 to 4 times a week, minimum, and book professional grooming every 4 to 6 weeks. Singapore's humidity speeds matting, so the routine matters more here than overseas care guides let on.

The good news: most pet owners keep a shorter teddy trim rather than the show coat, which turns the routine into something genuinely manageable. Light tear staining shows on white faces; a daily wipe with clean water keeps it in check, and the tools you need are already in the starter kit.

Bichon Frise Health: What We Check Before You Take One Home

Every Bichon Frise goes home vet-checked, vaccinated, dewormed, and microchipped. The Bichon health points worth knowing are a small few: patellar luxation, a kneecap issue common to small breeds; dental crowding, so the oral care items in your kit matter; and skin sensitivities, which the grooming routine helps you catch early. We say this once, plainly, so you hear it from your seller and not from a forum later.

Feeding is simple: your puppy comes with the small-breed food it is already eating, and any change should be gradual over a week. For portioning guidance see the puppy health checks explained guide.

Your Bichon Frise's First Week at Home

Day 0: we deliver, free, at a time that suits you, usually morning or evening. The playpen, bed, water, and toys are set up before your Bichon explores the room, and we walk you through all 30+ starter-kit items in person. Learn more about how our free home delivery and setup works.

Days 1 to 3: keep it calm and close. Bichons settle fastest with gentle company nearby, a fixed feeding routine, and the toilet pads where we placed them. Some night whimpering is normal adjustment.

Days 4 to 7: the routine sticks. This is the window to book your free first lesson with an AVS-certified trainer; see what the free AVS-certified training lesson covers. For anything in between, you WhatsApp us.

What Curious Tails Owners Say

56 Google reviews, 5.0 average, and counting.

  • Couldn't recommend Curious Tails in Balestier enough after bringing home our Maltipoo. Nelson and Kim made us feel right at home and helped us every step of the way and included a generous set of free gifts with the puppy. They handled the licence transfer and guided us through the ownership course too. Genuinely the best decision we made, highly recommended.

  • As first time dog owners, our family really appreciated how Nelson & Kim provided us with so much assurance and support throughout the whole process. They were knowledgeable and considerate and talked us through what we should expect. Our puppy is the perfect, joyful addition to our family. His exceptional health and bright temperament are a testament to the high standards of Curious Tails. Once we made our decision on our dear little Archie, Nelson assisted with the drop- off and even provided a short training at our house. The entire starter pack is so helpful for first time dog owners as it contains every single item that one would require. Excited to spend time with our new family member - Archie!!

  • Walked into Curious Tails looking for a Cavapoo puppy for sale and walked out with the happiest little addition to our family. We're so grateful to Nelson and Kim, who handled the paperwork professionally and quickly and shared plenty of practical care tips. The puppy was happy, healthy, and clearly raised in a loving environment. So thankful we chose Curious Tails, our home feels complete now.

Bichon Frise FAQs

How much is a Bichon Frise in Singapore?

A Bichon Frise in Singapore costs $3,888 to $5,988 at Curious Tails, all-in. Local listings for the same breed swing more than almost any small breed: some sit near $2,400, while cost-of-ownership guides quote figures as high as $12,800. Our price already includes the $500+ starter kit, free home delivery and setup, and a free first training lesson with an AVS-certified trainer, so the cheapest headline number rarely includes what ours does.

What is the Bichon Frise price in Singapore right now?

As of September 2026, a Bichon Frise puppy at Curious Tails is $3,888 to $5,988. That is the full price in writing, not a starting figure that grows at collection: the starter kit, home delivery with the playpen set up, the first training lesson and boarding after deposit are all inside it. We update this figure on the page whenever it changes rather than asking you to WhatsApp for a number.

Why is a Bichon Frise cheaper here than at other Singapore pet shops?

We do not carry the marketing spend the bigger names do, and we would rather win on value and word of mouth. The other half of the answer is what is counted: a lower sticker elsewhere usually excludes the starter kit, delivery, setup and training, which is roughly $1,000 to $3,000 of value once you add them back. Compare the full picture on our puppy price guide rather than the headline numbers.

What does a Bichon Frise cost in the first year, beyond the purchase price?

Budget past day one for food, grooming and routine vet care. A Bichon is a curly-coated breed, so professional grooming is a recurring cost rather than an occasional one, and the coat needs brushing at home between visits. Vaccinations, sterilisation and annual checkups sit on top. Our first-year puppy budget guide lays the numbers out before you commit, and the starter kit covers most of the day-one supplies.

Is a Bichon Frise HDB-approved?

Yes. The Bichon Frise is named on the HDB-approved breed list, so you can keep one in an HDB flat. HDB allows one dog of an approved breed per flat, and we complete the dog licensing for you at purchase, so the paperwork is handled.

Can a Bichon Frise be left alone while we are at work?

Bichons are cheerful precisely because they live for company, so a full 8am to 6pm alone every weekday is not their ideal. They suit homes with someone around: a family, a retiree, a helper, or remote work. If nobody is home all day, a more independent Cavapoo is often the kinder match, and we'll tell you so.

How big does a Bichon Frise get?

Most Bichon Frises reach roughly 3 to 5 kg fully grown, standing around 23 to 28 cm at the shoulder. It is a naturally compact breed, which is one reason it has been a flat-living favourite for so long.

Are Bichon Frises hypoallergenic?

The Bichon Frise is one of the breeds most often recommended for allergy-sensitive households: its curly double coat traps loose hair instead of dropping it. No dog is truly allergen-free, but the Bichon is among the better tolerated. The trade-off is grooming: that coat needs regular brushing and professional grooming to stay healthy.

How much grooming does a Bichon Frise need?

The most of any breed we carry. Brush 3 to 4 times a week to prevent matting, and book professional grooming every 4 to 6 weeks; Singapore's humidity speeds up matting, so consistency matters more here than overseas guides suggest. Most owners keep a shorter pet trim, which makes the routine genuinely manageable.

Why does my Bichon Frise get brown tear stains?

It is the classic downside of a white face: tears and saliva oxidise on pale fur and leave reddish-brown marks, and Singapore's humidity makes the damp worse. It is cosmetic, not usually medical. A daily wipe under the eyes with a damp cloth, keeping the hair around the eyes trimmed, and fresh water in a clean bowl keep most of it in check; we show you the routine on delivery day.

Is there a mini or teacup Bichon Frise?

No. There is only one Bichon Frise, the compact companion dog described above; "mini", "toy" or "teacup" Bichon labels usually mean an undersized runt, a very young puppy sold on a size promise, or a cross. We quote you the honest adult size, not a marketing label.

What happens after I reserve a Bichon Frise?

You place a deposit, and we board your puppy for free, food and lodging covered, until you're ready. Delivery is scheduled around your availability, and we set up the playpen and walk you through all 30+ starter-kit items before we leave.
