Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Skipper is a 6 year old male Bichon. He is neutered, house trained, up to date on vet care, healthy (but a little bit overweight), sweet and loving! His former owner had to move out of her home that she shared with her man friend, as he was diagnosed with alcoholic onset dementia and he was becoming abusive to her. So she took the dog and left. She is staying with friends now and can no longer keep him. So, cute little Skipper needs a new loving Furever home. As you can see from the photos he is a happy, tail wagging bundle of love!
Skipper would do well with a person or family that has at least one person that is home most of the time or works only part time, so they have the time to give him frequent potty breaks. A fenced in yard would be preferable as well.
If you are interested in Skipper please fill out an application at this link: http://www.bichonrescuenj.com/bichon-frise-rescue-nnj-adoption-app.html
Chosen applicants must live in NJ or within 2 hours drive of Northern NJ. They will also have vet references checked, and need to submit a virtual video home check and give an adoption donation.
