Bichon Frise - Small - Adult - Female - Dog - Frannie
Description
7 yr old Frannie came to us when a veterinarians office called to ask us to take her into rescue. Her owner had requested that she be euthanized as she was costing him too much money. However, we feel there is more to the story, a story that we will probably never know. Frannie loves to be cuddled. She loves toys and playing fetch. She does hate to be made to do anything that she hasnt thought of and decided was a good thing. Frannie is a strong, extremely intelligent dog who can easily take over a household if allowed to. She needs a strong, intelligent, gentle, loving and firm adopter. She is not good around all dogs; she picks and chooses with whom she will be a friend and whom she will pick on. She will be placed as an only dog. Frannie has started obedience lessons and loves them! This is an intelligent dog who needs to work! She has learned to sit, lay down and 'shake'. Frannie and her adopter will be required to continue obedience training (positive reinforcement). ADOPTION RESTRICTIONS PLEASE READ Potential adopters must live with 100 miles of Norfolk, VA and must submit a written application (SEE BELOW) We do not adopt to families with children under the age of 8. We do not ship dogs. Bichons require a great deal of love and attention in order to thrive. Because of their extreme people dependence and their inherent housetraining difficulties, we place only in homes where there is an adult home during the day. ADOPTION FEE $250 The adoption process starts with an adoption application form.
