Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi People!
I’m Dickens and I’m a happy, healthy and delightful two year old bichon with big black eyes and a terrific smile. My ‘aunties’ at Bichon FurKids say my first name should be “Cute As” and my middle name “The” or Cute-As-The-Dickens!
My foster Mom calls me “Super Glue” because I bonded with her in about two seconds. She says I am a happy, happy love bug. And she is right, of course. I love every one, love to ride in the car, go for walks, take naps, sit on laps and hang out. You name it. I love it! Mom also said that I am great times ten!
I am eager to please and fit in. I like other dogs and people of all sizes and shapes and I am best with older children. I'm also a bit of a lover (but don't tell anyone!) I like to put my head on your shoulder and snuggle for all I'm worth. My aunties say that makes me even cuter (if that’s possible.)
Walking is something I do very well. I’m learning my commands and love to play with toys and chew on my Kong toy. I love my blankie and pillow. I’m very sweet and I love to cuddle. Mom says I would make a great “comfort” dog who could visit with the sick or elderly because I am very friendly and loving (and I know that everyone I meet is going to be my new friend.) But I'm no couch potato! Want to play? I'm happy to oblige!
If I sound like the kind of fur kid you are looking for, a cuddler and a lover, please complete our application as I’m waiting to meet, and greet, you.
Kisses and cuddles,
Delightful and Delicious Dickens
