White Dogs

White symbolizes elegance, grace, and charm, and dogs of this color absolutely live up to the qualities of this shade. Some, especially the smaller breeds like the Bichon Frise, Maltese, and Pomeranian, resemble cute balls of fluffs while the bigger ones such as the Great Pyrenees and Dogo Argentino have a sophistication of their own.
