Hello People,
My name is Cody and I’m a calm, cuddly and charming bichon mix of about six or seven (years old that is) who excels at being a companion. In fact the “C’ in my name is short for COMPANION. I’m LOYAL in capital letters, LOVING (in a very sweet and adoring way) and a very mellow fellow!
My foster Mom says I’m masterful at walks and have learned that they are a fun experience. I get to smell lots of things and see pups and people on our walks. (I’m a very approachable kind of guy and so nice that everyone wants to say ‘Hello’ to me. Mom says I walk really nicely on a leash and could walk forever. I also ‘heel’ when she stops. (Mom says that shows my good manners.) Pups and people seem to like me but I’m also pretty independent and confident, yet cuddly and affectionate.
I’m housebroken which Mom says is a very good thing, and am such a good boy! While I could sleep in the Big People’s Bed I prefer to go under it instead. And you know what? Sleeping in and feeling safe is such a great thing that I’m in no hurry to get up!
Mom also wants you to know that I’m a svelte 21 pounds who is blossoming more and more every day (Silly Mom! I’m not a flower, I’m a FurKid!) and that I respond 1000% to human kindness. I appreciate every (good) thing that happens for and to me. I’m quite content to sit quietly on the couch next to you, happy to accept as many belly rubs as you want to give me. And if you want to brush or groom me, well, I’ll just sit next to you for hours doing what Mom calls “a bichon purr.” I just love (and appreciate) the attention. And looking handsome is a nice, too!
My very favorite thing in the world is to be loved and to give it back. Mom says I am a sweet and happy guy who appreciates attention – but doesn’t demand it. (I especially appreciate all the nice things Mom says about me and how kind she is!) I just need somebody to give me lots of love – and I’ll absolutely positively give it right back!
There is no doubt that I’m a special and loyal boy who is longing to make someone very happy. Mom says I’m wonderful, easy going and sweet. (Can you tell she likes me?) And while I’m close to perfect I will need you to help me understand that going for rides in the car is fun! (Right now I do not associate them with fun so I probably never got to go to fun places before I became a FurKid.)
So if you are looking for that special companion to go where you go, enjoy hanging out and looking for a new best friend please ask for me as I’m applying for the job!
Tail wags and more,
Cuddly and Calm Cody
I, Georgie, am happy romping around playing with doggie toys, wrestling with Gracie or my foster doggy brothers or dancing around on my back legs. Dad says sometimes it’s a three or four ring circus at our house. He says that he and Mom call me the Jumping Bean ‘cause I try to jump into their arms whenever I have the chance! I also do this thing where I put my paws on either side of your neck and hug you! Mom says I’m a darling little boy and that you will want to snuggle with me any chance you get –I’m just that cute. (Can you tell she likes me?)
Now as for Gracie, Dad says she is an amazingly athletic, agile and fun pup to have around. She is happy to snuggle on the couch for a few minutes but is very busy the rest of the time playing and having fun. Gracie loves her yak bones and chew toys. Mom says she does have a trait that makes her smile. You see Gracie likes to hide her bones and toys. (She says you can never have too many bones for a rainy day – or whenever you need them!) Gracie also does the Bichon Buzz to perfection! Did I mention that she loves to run in the yard for about half an hour at least once a day? She’s pretty much non-stop. And she plays fetch too. She’s really good at it. (I like to chase the ball and try to get it before Gracie does but we’re pretty evenly matched!) And that goes for wrestling too! The only problem I have is that she has a way of staying clean and white even when it’s raining! I say that’s not fair!
Now about the snuggling part, we love to be cuddled separately and I’m more of a lovebug than Gracie is. On the other hand she sees the kind of attention I’m getting and is starting to think she can stay on the couch and cuddle longer (so she gets as much attention as I do!)
Mom says is that our forever home will be very special — because it will have two of the sweetest FurKids in the world living inside. And Dad agrees. He says anyone who meets us will be a happier person for the experience.
Until the other day I was living on the street and scrounging for food. Then I was picked up and taken to a place called a shelter. It was a loud and intimidating place for a youngster like me and I became quite scared. I rubbed and rubbed my ears on the concrete until they were very swollen and bloody. And while I don’t recommend doing that it did get me ‘rescued’ right away –so that I wouldn’t make things any worse for my poor ears!
My BFK Aunties took me to the nice vet where they shaved and cleaned up my ears and gave me some meds so that my ears would stop hurting me. Thank goodness they did as it worked! I’m already healing and the hair on my ears is already growing back.
There is also a great doggy foster brother who is helping me to become more confident every day. He is doing what Mom calls “showing me the ropes”. I get to meet lots of other dogs and people — and I like them all (Best of all, they like me!) And the greatest news is that I no longer have to be alone (Didn’t I tell you I’m lucky!)
Did I mention that I like to go for rides (in the car, of course!) and on walks? Well I do – walks and car rides are the best! And when we are back home, it doesn’t take much to get me into a ‘snuggle mode’. (Mom says I do that well, too!)
I like other dogs and even get along with those creatures called ‘cats.’ Everyone who meets me says I’m sweeter than sweet. It’s easy ‘cause I’m happy to be given love and attention. (Mom says a sweet, smart and gentle furkid like me would be welcome in any home- and on any lap!)
I have big brown eyes (that smile) and a great personality to match. I dance on my hind legs to show my joy. There is no doubt that I’m a feminine and happy little girl with a great big heart! And did I mention I’m a cuddler and a lover, adoring and affectionate – and, guess what? I’m looking for my forever home.
I’m happiest when there are people around to love! Mom says I’m the best companion you could ever ask for and am always happy as long as I can be close to my people.
There is no doubt that I’m a feminine and happy little girl with a great big heart! Mom says that I’m an adorable and sweet pup — with so much love to give! If my whole day could be spent playing and then snuggling, and then playing and then snuggling, I would be the happiest FurKid on earth. How does that sound to you? If it sounds good, please complete our application and ask for Nikki?
Everyone who sees me says I’m just as cute as I can be! I’m the most vocal of my siblings. I like to have them around as they help me to feel more confident.
There are three of us (two boys and 1 girl) and we are adorable and adoptable! Our Mom is a terri-chi and Dad was a poodle mix so you could say we are mixed with cuteness. Please be sure to complete an adoption application – so we can get to know one another. You can meet me now — and I can go home with you in early October. In the meantime I will continue to learn as much as I can and get ready for my forever home.
