Hello and welcome to the website of Copella Papillons. I hope you enjoy the site. It is
updated weekly so please come back often.
My love affair with Papillons began
when my oldest daughter wanted a Papillon for a roommate while in college at the University of Arkansas. I
bought the first Pap, Bentley, for my daughter. I was hooked. He stole my heart. Bentley
moved in with my daughter and the search began for a Papillon of my own. I have always enjoyed dogs and dog shows, so the progression from pet owner to dog
show exhibitor was a natural one. I have been showing dogs since 2003. I regret that I did not begin
sooner.
I breed to produce Papillons that meet the AKC standard for the breed. I
strive to produce healthy, beautiful and well adjusted Papillons. I am a show breeder and breed on a very limited
basis.
All of my dogs are much loved members of my family. They are not
"kennel" dogs. My Papillons share my home and my life. A Papillon would not be happy
with anything less. My three adult children believe the Papillons are their replacements. I do seem
to acquire a new Papillon each time a child leaves home.
I am a teacher and my husband
is a CPA. I have three adult children. I also have one son-in-law and one grandson.
I
am nearing retirement and look forward to spending more of my time with my adorable Papillons. I
hope that you, too, will fall in love with the "butterfly dog."
 About Papillons
Papillons are true "velcro dogs." They love to be beside you during all
your daily activities. They are sweet, affectionate and extremely intelligent. They are the most intelligent of
all the toy breeds. They are often trained as service dogs. Papillons excel in all aspects of the show world.
They are excellent agility and obedience competitors, as well as beautiful conformation dogs. For more information about
Papillons, follow the links at the bottom of this page to the American Kennel Club and the Papillon Club of America.
