Andy

Fostered in San Diego County

****

Hello World,

I’m Andy, a pint-sized, adorable, gentle, happy, tail-wagging little Bichon guy of about 1½ (years, that is.) My foster Dad says that I’m a kind, gentle and affectionate little guy (I weigh not quite 11 pounds) who is in love with life. I have big brown eyes that look into your soul and a smile that will touch your heart.

My BFK Aunties say I’m a ‘portable’. That means I’m little and you can take me anywhere!

I have a doggy foster sister and several doggy foster brothers but I am happiest when I can be the center of someone’s attention. While I can play and fit in nicely with the other FurKids, I can entertain myself equally well. I’m what you call an ‘only,’ which is pretty rare for a bichon, from what I hear.

There are lots of things in my new life that I truly love. For example I love to ride in the car! And I love to go for walks. These are new experiences for me. Did I mention that I also love learning commands? I’ve already learned my name and now am working on  ‘SIT’ before I eat or get a treat!  Mom says that I am S-M-A-R-T! She has to spell it because she doesn’t want me to get a swelled head. And since I am food-motivated, it’s easy to teach me anything.

But what I love most of all is…cuddling! Why, I have a black belt in cuddling and a blue belt in snuggling. Want to read a book or watch a movie? I will lie quietly near or on you (you won’t know I’m there) and enjoy your company.

My hair is growing back soft and silky and white. Soon I’ll be a little white cotton ball of a bichon. Because I’m very confident, I do well meeting new people, I just wag my tail and say ‘Hello’, ready to make new friends. Dad says I have the cutest way of wiggling when I walk too. I almost look like I’m walking sideways ‘cause I my body wiggles so much. (It’s truly adorable to watch!)

Mom says I’m very loving and very loyal. She says when she or Dad comes home I am very excited and welcoming. (What can I say? I love my Mom and Dad a lot! Their kindness is something I so appreciate!) They are teaching me that there’s a lot of good in the world and that I truly deserve that kind of goodness!

My Ideal Home:

*A loving home
*Someone home most of the time
*Adults or a family
*No other FurKids required (I want to be the center of someone’s world!)

Experience level:

*Have had dogs as an adult
*Recent/current dog experience a plus

So if you are looking for a sweetheart to join your family and be a part of everything you do, I am applying for the job. Dad says you will never find anyone better- and that anyone would be lucky to adopt me.  

Hope we can meet soon!

Absolutely Adorable Andy
