The breed standard (ideal) modern
Papillon is required to
have an abundant, flowing coat, which is considered proper only if it
is a single coat (i.e., has no fluffy or cottony undercoat), short on
the head but profuse around the neck and chest. The tail should be a plume of long hair. A proper single
coat ensures relatively low maintenance in grooming. The large, erect,
and fringed ears are the most notable physical attribute of the
erect-eared breed today.
