Cotton-like coat needs daily brushing. Low shedding but high maintenance.
What the Coton de Tulear pricing tells you
Coton de Tulear pricing starts from a small profile (8-15 lb). Larger frames take longer to bathe and dry, which is why this breed lands where it does on the table.
Coat work matters next: Coton de Tulear carries a long coat, and the weekly schedule compounds the yearly total.
Temperament (Charming, bright, happy-go-lucky) and lifespan (15-19 years) shape the real lifetime bill, a cooperative dog finishes faster; a nervous one may need more hands or a longer slot.
