papillon
- n small slender toy spaniel with erect ears and a black-spotted brown to white coat
- Again the fuzzy little papillon pattered at his heels.
- Their cousin, Phthirus pubis, the so-called crab louse (in French, papillon d'amour, or butterfly of love), can cause, at the least, acute embarrassment.
- There is, for instance, the meeting of a tiny dog (a papillon) and a fox, told rather charmingly from the dog's point of view.
