Hi New Friends!
My name is Zesty and Zany Zippy and I’m a perfect boy, a Bichon mixed with pure cuteness. Everyone who meets me says I’m adorable, loving and mellow. And that’s before they get to know more about me! On that note, I’m ten years young, weigh 12 pounds, have the most soulful eyes and short little legs. I am as affectionate as I can be, make new friends wherever I go and LOVE to go on rides and have adventures!
In my foster home I have many doggy ‘siblings’. Most are small like me but there’s a big one too. I’m not quite sure about him but he has this great big cushy bed so (drum roll please) when the bedroom door opens up I make a mad rush for the big cushy bed and claim it for the night. I smile like the cute boy I am when I have commandeered the BIG bed!
Did I mention that I’m housebroken AND know how to use the doggy door, never bark at strangers, am friendly and intuitive? I seem to know what people want and am happy to give that to them. And they are pretty intuitive too because when I roll over on my back they know I’m waiting for my favorite: a belly rub! Mom says that when she gives me a belly rub it tickles me and makes me scratch my back leg. She says that’s funny and very cute too! She loves how soft my hair is too!
I also like to go on short walks and LOVE rides in the car ! I really missed that a lot. You see my ‘original mom’ had couldn’t do those things with me any more- but knew I needed to be in a home where I could still do the things we used to do together. So I became a FurKid and now I get to do all those things again! Lucky me!
My Ideal Home:
* Someone home most of the time
* Another dog around my age
* Adults or a family
Experience level:
* Have had dogs as an adult
* Recent/current dog experience a plus
* Rescue dog experience
Mom says I’m an ‘easy peasy’ kind of pup. She means that I’m a calm, sweet boy who just likes being in your presence. Give me a comfy, cushy bed to lie in and I’m in heaven. OH and belly rubs and scratching my neck too please!
One more thing I almost forgot to mention – and that is I am SMART! Mom’s house has an iron fence to divide the side yard where the doggy door is. Well, I studied it for a bit then ‘discovered’ I could scoot through rather easily and get to the other side! Mom looked out the window one day and there I was on the ‘wrong’ side while my doggy foster brothers stood there wondering how I did that. That’s when Mom knew how very smart I am!
(By the way my foster brothers have still never figured that out!)
What I really need now is a forever family to call my own. Will you be the one for me? If you think you are, please complete our application so we can meet soon.
Bichon waves and wags,
Zany and Zesty Zippy
