Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi Everybody!
My name is Charlie - and I'm a darling little bichon boy of about four who is very cute and smart, loves attention and seems to learn something new every day.
Because I’m a very friendly and helpful guy, I’m ready to assist you with anything you want to do. So whether it’s working on the computer, watching TV, working in the yard or cooking, I’m happy to lend a paw or two – or sit quietly nearby.
If, however, you want to play – well that’s another story. I have this very favorite toy. It doesn’t have what Mom calls ‘stuffing’ but it sure is fun to play with. I throw it and catch it and carry it around the house and yard. Mom says it’s amazing to see that I can carry it and smile at the same time! And I love to have you throw tennis balls for me. (I’ve learned that Mom and Dad are very good at bringing them back, too!)
Not to brag but I’m working with a trainer who says I’m ‘extremely S-M-A-R-T, very trainable and a great listener. He says those are three great things. That’s because I want to please -- and make you happy. When you call me I come running. When you ask me to ‘Sit’ I know just what to do. I’m working on ‘leave it’ and ‘drop it.’ There’s a lot more that I can learn, though! If you’re willing to teach me, I’m ready to be the bestest student ever!
Mom says I love to cuddle and get an A+++ in snuggling. I also love tummy rubs (no surprise there ‘cause I am a bichon!!)
So you now probably know that I’m cuddly, friendly, playful, attentive, sweet and adaptable. If you have a big heart, like to walk and go for rides, enjoy a good cuddle and are looking for your new best friend, please ask for me. I’m here, with a big happy smile, lots of unconditional love and waiting to be the center of someone’s world.
Wags and hugs,
Charming and Cute Charlie Brown
