How to Train your CONTINENTAL TOY SPANIEL

Training Your Continental Toy Spaniel

Also known as the Papillon or Phalène, this breed is brilliantly smart, highly active, and fiercely eager to please. They are arguably the smartest toy breed.

Key Training Tips:

• Advanced Training: Basic obedience is too easy for them. They absolutely dominate in agility, obedience, and rally trials. Give them complex puzzles to solve.
• Keep Sessions Active: They bore easily with repetitive drills. Keep training sessions incredibly fast-paced, utilizing high-energy play as a reward.

They are highly affectionate but require an owner who can keep up with their brilliant, active minds.
