Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi People,
My name is Jax and I’m about an 18 month old sweetheart, a bichon mix and happy FurKid, I’m a cuddler and a lover, great with children and good with other dogs. My foster mom says I’m a very sweet and obedient little guy (about 10 pounds) who loves to be petted and held, give and receive kisses. (Actually, she says I’m a doll but I thought I had better explain!)
Dad says I am a good listener and a great companion! I like to be wherever he, Mom or the kids are - but I am not intrusive. If I can lie nearby, that is fine. If I can be in someone’s lap… well that is even better!!! Dad says that I am also a good walker and a pretty good rider (in the car, that is! ) As long as I can be with my person or family I’m very content!
Mom says there is no doubt that I am very smart! I have learned to walk on a leash, and love to go anywhere! She says I’m not excited by other dogs – I just keep on walking and smelling the flowers. I also don’t bark and am learning basic commands. Mom wanted me to tell you an example of how smart I am – and how much I want to please. Well you see one day she was in the garden. She told me to sit and wait for her in a certain place. Five minutes later she walked back to the garden – so I just went and sat in the same exact spot and waited for her. Mom was REALLY amazed at how quickly I figure that out. You see I really want to please!
Mom says I would be happiest with a family that is home a lot. And if my family could take me on lots of walks and if they like to cuddle, well I’d think I was in heaven! I am just a happy, fun-loving and sweet little creature who never complains, loves to give doggy kisses and has a great big loving heart.
If I sound like the kind of fur kid that you are looking for, please fill out an application at www.bichonfurkids.org/applications as I am waiting to meet you.
