Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello People!
My name is Vivi and I’m a gentle, sweet and loving little Bichon mix of about three. My foster Mom says I'm 12 pounds of love in an adorable package. Dad says I’m joyful, good natured and loves to be near people. Mom and Dad say I run to greet them with my tail wagging as fast as it can, always happy to see them.
As soon as you meet me you will see that I’m just a little girl who wants to be showered with love and affection – and then return the favor. I love people, including the ones that come to visit. I greet them with a gentle smile and wait for them to sit down (so we can then cuddle.) I especially like to cuddle.
Dad says I’m very social and like everyone I meet. He said I’m some kind of social butterfly (I’m really not a butterfly, silly Dad!) I am, however, a cuddler. I like to cuddle with people –Mom says that makes me irresistible.
I also LOVE to play with soft toys and… socks! There’s something special about having toys and socks. (Mom says I also like to go to the toy basket and pick out a toy to have next to me. She can tell that this is a pretty new experience for me and I enjoy it a lot.) I also like to play with my doggy foster brother or sister – or any visiting furkid! You can tell that I adore being with the other furkids and want to be just like them (because I always try to copy whatever they are doing!) Life as a furkid is really neat! And the things they are teaching me well… look out world, here I come!
Everything is new and interesting to me! Like going on walks and riding in the car. (I sit quietly on the seat, happy to go wherever we are going.) And when Mom and Dad go out I’m fine staying at home. I sit in my special chair and wait for them to return. Oh and I’m housebroken, rarely bark and sleep quietly in the Big People’s bed all night long.
Because I’m young, curious and still very much like a puppy, I will need to go to a home where someone is home most of the time -- and having another young doggie brother or sister to play and snuggle with would be a huge plus.
So, if you're looking for a sweet, happy, fun-loving and VERY adorable little bichon girl, please ask for Vivi! I’ll be watching for your application.
Your friend-in-waiting
Vivacious Little Vivi
