Hello everybody!

My name is Precious, Precocious and Playful Pixie and I’m a loving, friendly, affectionate and outgoing cream colored bichon of five who is a natural “meeter-and-greeter” and a wonderful companion. I approach all new people to say “Hello’, give them a great big smile and wag my tail – then wait to be petted and played with. They find me irresistible, of course, because I’m so outgoing and friendly! And if they like to give belly rubs well then I’m definitely happy to oblige!

I’m also a bit famous. Perhaps you saw my photos on Facebook. I was the one who had a ginormous baseball-sized ‘appendage’ on my belly and the shelter thought I wasn’t ‘worth saving.’ They put me on “THE list” but my BFK Aunties swooped in and rescued me. From the moment my foster Mom drove me home I let her know that I was thrilled to be recognized for the happy, healthy, outgoing and affectionate little girl that I could be once again. Now I’ve had my surgery (I never ever complained!) and completed my recovery (I made the best of everything!) and I’m happy to be on my way to finding my forever home!

My ‘aunties’ at BFK say I’m one of the bestest little girls they have ever seen!. My foster Mom says I’m a very happy little girl who is lovable, affectionate, trusting, confident, housebroken and has a zest for life! I love to go for rides in the car and am learning about what Mom calls ‘leash behavior”.( I think that means I can’t pull on the leash.) I also need to learn commands (I don’t know any yet) and some good manners. You see I’m all about fun and haven’t had much training yet. Dad says I’m smart and playful and want to please. I just need someone to be patient and consistent with me so I can learn. I KNOW we are going to have a lot of fun together!

As you can probably tell, I’m having a wonderful time with my Mom, Dad and my doggy foster brothers. I want to be in the center of all the action! I love to roll in the grass, sniff the pretty flowers, run in the yard after the balls and be as close to my humans as I can be.

I sleep in my bed on the floor next to Mom and Dad (but I’d really like to sleep in the Big People’s bed) and I’m known to climb up and lay on the biggest pile of pillows. I also love to play ‘Shake the toy” and do that for all I’m worth – and that’s a lot!

Mom says I’m well adjusted, friendly and a great companion who looks like I’m smiling all the time. (You can tell Mom that’s because I am!)

Above all I’m a sweet fluff of about 20 pounds who wants to completely devote herself to someone. I would do best in a home with another FurKid and people who want to share their activities with me!

So if you are looking for a love of a girl who is super loveable, affectionate, happy, enthusiastic, enjoys your company and is a great companion, then look no further. Please complete our application as I am waiting to meet you.

Tail wags and smiles

Hello People

I’m Milo, a darling, cuddly and handsome little Maltese who is two years old. And, although I weigh a mere 12 pounds, I’m here to prove that good things come in small packages.

My foster Mom describes me as “a snugglebug,” which is kind of funny ‘cause I’m not a bug at all! She said it means that I like to be close to her (and other people). Well, okay since that’s true, I guess it’s okay to call me that. And well I do have this way of lying across my favorite people (like Dad, Mom and the ones called teen-agers) and licking their ears, They sit on the couch to watch a movie and presto! I’m there to cuddle for all I’m worth (and that’s a lot!)

Besides being a snugglebug I’m a great walker who is really good on a leash! We go for walks every day and I love them! I get to smell the grass, enjoy the sunshine and see other dogs along the way. I’m also good in the car. Dad says that although I’d like to drive I’m too little – so I just lie quietly in the backseat while we go ‘cruising’. I’m really a mellow fellow.

The greatest thing about being a youngster is that you get to play and learn things! Right now I’m one of three FurKids in the house so I’m learning a lot of things – like how to play with toys (tug-of-war is lots of fun and so is chase the ball.) and then there is my stuffed duck. Did I mention that I LOVE my stuffed toy duck? Mom says I’ve investigated all the toys in the house already – and really enjoy them. I especially love toys that make the crunchy sound when I crunch them! My middle name could be ‘play boy!’

Because I’m such a young guy, I’m still learning things like my commands. Mom says I’m also very smart. In fact I taught myself to be housetrained and have learned about the doggy door. (I’m just about perfect with it already although the flap still scares me a bit). It’s obvious that I really want to please and am very smart – and I’m working on being the bestest pup in no time at all!

Although I sleep in a crate now, I’m so good that I hope to sleep in the Big People’s Bed in my forever home (where I will be very quiet and well behaved!) In fact I’m pretty well behaved all the time, content to be in a loving home where I am appreciated and nourished.

To sum it all up, Mom says I’m a silly, affectionate, sweet, friendly and happy little guy. So what do you think? If you have other FurKids that would be perfect ‘cause they can be my play buddies!

My Ideal Home:
* Someone home most of the time
* Another small, young FurKid required
* Someone who likes to go on walks and rides in the car

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

If you’re interested in meeting me, please complete our application and ask for Milo please! (I’m practicing my very best manners, too!)

Hugs and snuggles,

Mischievous and Magnificent Milo

Ollie

Ollie Must Have:
— A patient and dog savvy person or couple
— No children
— Other small pups, especially a female, would be nice
— Someone who lives in the desert

Experience Level:

Hello World,

My name is Ollie and I am a gorgeous black and white pup, about 20 pounds and three years old who is a very handsome and plucky boy. I love to go for walks, am good in the car and very smart. I’m also a bit of what my Aunties call ‘a diamond in the rough.’ Let me explain.

I was living in a shelter with lots of other dogs in my ‘cage’ and I was scared. I was lucky enough to be rescued and got to live in an amazing foster home where I was part of everything that was going on. I liked that a lot – and I liked playing with my doggy foster sister and brother.

I had, however, developed a few ‘not so social’ behaviors with new people, though, so I got signed up for something called ‘training.’ Now I am living with a wonderful couple (she’s a ‘dog trainer’) have several foster brothers and sisters from whom I can learn and a foster Dad who likes to cuddle. (He says I’m the one who likes to cuddle but I tell him it takes two to cuddle!)

My trainer says that when you have earned my trust I become an affectionate cuddlebug who loves to sit on your lap and be with you. I am not, however, a pushover. When someone new comes over they inevitably want to pet me because I’m so cute and expressive. That doesn’t work for me. I don’t like that kind of attention when I don’t know you — and that means I react fearfully. If we can spend time together and get to know one another, that’s an entirely different situation. After we become buddies you will see the cuddly, loving side of me because we are then friends.

Dad says I’m just great on a leash and even better in the car! I just LOVE to ride in the car! I’m crate trained and working on learning commands. Because I’m smart I can learn them quickly. On the other hand I need lots of reinforcement.

My trainer says I don’t yet have a lot of ‘tools in my tool box’. As a result I am working with her to learn new ways to cope and not be reactive. She is helping me to become more confident and to make better choices. She (and I) hope I can find someone who is willing to get to know me slowly and work with her until I can then go to my forever home. Since my trainer is located in the desert, ideally I would like to meet someone who also lives in the desert and can visit with me to build trust before I get adopted.

My Ideal Home Must Have:
— A patient and dog savvy person or couple
— No children
— Other small pups, especially a female, would be nice
— Someone who lives in the desert

That’s a bit of a tall order but I believe there is someone out there who has faith in my ability to adapt and is willing to manage me and help me be successful. Then I can transition from being a diamond in the rough to being a happy, confident pup.

So if you are looking for a pup who is playful, energetic, a bit barky and reactive —while also smart and willing to learn, let’s start a conversation. With time and patience I am hoping to become the pup I was meant to be.

Tails wags and cuddles,

Optimistic and potentially Omazing Ollie

Dandy

Hello Everyone,

My name is Dandy and I’m a handsome, loving and tail wagging sweetheart and a man-sized Bichon of about nine (years, that is) who is playful, smart and very well behaved. My foster Mom says I’m also endearing, irresistible and very sweet – a cuddler who is good with other dogs and thoroughly enjoys people. Mom says I’m really drawn to men (but I like women too. In fact I really just like everyone!)

My BFK Aunties say I’m a mellow fellow who does what he’s asked to do and is oh-so-eager to please! They say I’m always cheerful and happy and relaxed around people. I love running in the yard and, no matter what I’m doing, I constantly wag my tail to show how very happy I am!

Did I mention that I LOVE car rides? I’m REALLY a pro in the car…. already! And I REALLY like to go on walks too! I’m learning to have the best ‘dog walking’ manners and respond well to commands like ‘sit’ and ‘stay’. Did I mention that I’m housebroken (I ask to go out by standing at the back door. Isn’t that great?) And I sleep peacefully on my bed in Mom’s bedroom (next to my doggy foster sister) where I lie quietly all night long, snuggling and happy as can be!

There is no doubt that I’m a real lap dog and the world’s best companion! I learn quickly too and, most of all, want to please!

Mom says I would be happy in a home either with another female FurKid ocan be an ‘only’ FurKid if I have my people around most of the time. I’m just a happy, friendly, loveable, adaptable and very sweet (Did I mention I’m a lover?) little guy with a heart full of love and about as cute as I can be.

Dandy Must Have:

Someone who is home most of the time and another small female would be fine but not required. Cats and kids 8 or older are okay.

Hi People,

My name is Casey and I’m a handsome and loving sweetheart of about six or seven (years, that is) who is playful, smart and very loving. My foster Mom says I’m also endearing, irresistible and sweet – a major cuddler who is good with other dogs and thoroughly enjoys his people.

My foster Dad says I’m handsome, playful and eager to please. He says it’s fun watching me learn so many (new) things. For example I recently discovered this really neat toy called a ‘rollerball’. When I roll it the right direction I get special treats. Mom says I’m SO smart that I figured it out in seconds (and you should see me roll it! I’m masterful!) She finds watching me very entertaining!.

I’ve learned about car rides. I’m a pro in the car…. already! And I really REALLY like to go on walks. To say I’m fabulous on a leash is NOT an understatement. I also have good ‘dog walking’ manners. Did I mention (drum roll please) that I’m housebroken EVEN with all this darn rain (!) I’m so good that I get to sleep in the Big People’s bed where I lie quietly all night long, snuggling and happy as can be!

I’m a real lap dog and the world’s best companion! I learn quickly too, am not a chewer or a barker.

Mom says I would be happy in a home with other FurKids or can be an ‘only’ FurKid if I have my people around most of the time. I’m just a happy, friendly, loveable, adaptable and very sweet (Did I mention I’m a love sponge?) little guy with a heart full of love and about as cute as I can be.

If I sound like the kind of fur kid that you are looking for, please fill out an application so we can meet!

Thanks a lot!

Sammy

Greetings New Friends,

My name is Sammy and I’m a precious little bundle of fluff– an adorable, happy and sweet little bichon mix who is six weeks young, weighs a little over 2 pounds and is as cute as can be. Mom says to tell you that I’m a lovebug with enormous brown eyes (I get those from my mom) with soft, straight white hair and apricot ears.

My foster Mom says I’m the biggest cuddler of all my siblings. (There are six of us, four boys and two girls.) Dad says I’m the one who curls up on Mom’s lap when she sings to me and that I’m also the first one to the ‘milk bar’.

Of course I love people and love to give and receive attention to everyone. Besides being a champion cuddler, I love to play, play, play – and sleep, sleep, sleep. That’s ’cause I’m a little puppy!

I am learning to be housebroken and am showing how smart I am every day! Like all young pups, I will need training and would love to have a forever family that will learn right along with me. I MUST go to a home with another young pup that I can emulate. (Mom says that’s a big word that means I can learn from the other pup.)

I will be able to do a virtual adoption visit with approved adopters starting March 24th and can go home after my first set of shots on April 16th,

So, if you are looking for a darling little boy who is all sweetness and love, combined with play and fun, then please ask for me.

Tail wags and puppy cuddles,
Sociable and Sensitive Sammy
