Hi People!
I’m a very cute little bichon pup named Darling Darby who is 13 pounds soaking wet and all of about three years young. (Mom thinks soaking wet is pretty funny ‘cause like most FurKids I’m not thrilled being wet!) But when it comes to being friendly and playful, well I excel at that for sure!
My foster Mom and Dad say I’m loving, affectionate, attentive and VERY smart. I listen and REALLY want to please. Why I’ve already learned to come when I’m called (unlike some of my bichon brethren!) and I’ve learned to ‘sit’. I’m definitely smart and want to learn more. I can also be a bit dominant so I need someone who is savvy and knows how to be in charge. You see, I’m not just only a cute bichon!
You may have read about me as well as I have quite a story to tell. You see, I was wandering around the streets of Orange County, trying to stay safe and find something to eat. I was in survival mode and, though I’m smart, I struggled a lot. I couldn’t find much food and what I scavenged wasn’t good for me. I developed what my BFK Aunties called ‘allergies’ and some of my hair fell out. It was not looking good for this little guy and then I got lucky! I found this really nice lady and her teenage kids. They thought I was cute and were worried about me being on the street! They took me to their vet who gave me a ‘good dog check up’ then I went to their home. Soon after that the nice lady had to go to work so I became a FurKid. Now I have good food to eat all the time, doggy foster brothers and sisters to play with, a foster Mom and Dad who are teaching me things and LIFE is GOOD!
I’ve learned to potty outside and to go on walks and rides in the car. I’ve become quite the cuddler too –and love to give doggy kisses. I like to play with toys, run in the yard and am an energetic pup. After a day of playing and entertaining myself with toys, I like to lie on the couch with my foster Dad and snuggle. At night, when it’s time to go to sleep, I go quietly into my crate and sleep all night long.
My Ideal Home:

So if you are looking for a cuddly, smart, playful companion who is energetic and also likes to cuddle, I’m applying for the job. Please ask for me and I’ll be waiting to meet you.
Tail wags and snuggles,
Darling and Dashing Darby
I’m a smart little guy, almost housebroken and eager to learn what is expected of me. There are so many things that I do well already and, like most puppies, each day there are new things to experience. Did I mention that I’m smart, too? Let me tell you how I learned about those things called “stairs”. Well, I had (obviously) never seen them before and I was a bit distraught when my doggy foster siblings went up the stairs and left me behind! Initially I figured out how to go UP the stairs—however, it took me a while to learn how to go DOWN them. But I figured out a shortcut—sliding down the stairs on my tummy! It got the job done for a while until I learned I could go both UP and DOWN the stairs!
Oh, and one last thing! I love to give and receive affection. Sometimes I will come up to Mom and lay my head on her knee. After a quick head massage, I then go back to playing with my toys. When I’m sleepy, sometimes I like to be held. When Mom is holding me, I look up, put my head on her chest, and close my eyes for a nap. And when I’m sleeping and I have a good dream I make these cute little squeaky noises! So if you are looking for a sweetheart of a bichon, who is cute, friendly, playful and very loving then look no further. Just complete our application– and let’s get together.
My name is Loveable Levi and I’m a sweet and snuggly little guy of four (years that is) who is an affectionate and amazing companion! I am currently in Sacramento, California, and I get along with my doggy foster brother and sister and like being part of a pack. I’m awesome with children (even the very young ones) and love to be near my people (but am never intrusive.) My foster Mom says I have puppy dog eyes that look at you with love – and that I have the ability to ‘materialize’ from almost anywhere if you call my name.
My Ideal Home:
I’m a lot of fun – a little guy who is a dancer (more on that later) housebroken (that is NOT a typo!), friendly, feisty, playful and protective. Despite my small size I firmly believe that I have to protect my foster family from anyone and anything. Although Dad says I’m a total sweetheart, if I hear a noise outside at night I go into ‘guard dog mode’ as I want to keep everyone inside safe! You can tell that I’m a bit of a character. 
Mom says she loves the way I lay quietly and contentedly next to her while she works on her computer or stops to read a book. She says I’m a major cuddler who is a little goofy, sweet, loyal, fun, a little silly and very smart. I’m mostly housebroken, LOVE to walk and ride in the car, am learning commands and want to please! And did I mention that I’m just the right size to take anywhere? I can travel by train, plane or car and want to be your bestest companion, always!
It doesn’t seem possible but just a few weeks ago I lost my family and my home. They weren’t able to care for me, I had lived outside and not been groomed in a long time (as you could see from my shelter picture.) They took me to a shelter and said goodbye – but I got lucky and became a FurKid! Now I’m clean and comfortable and my silky white hair is growing back in. You can probably tell that I’m a resilient little guy. Mom and Dad said to let you know I am also amazingly adaptable pup who is filled only with love– and just waiting for a family who will love me as much, and as unconditionally, as I will love them!
