My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi Everyone,
My name is Willie and I am an affectionate and active little bichon, weighing about 12 pounds and one year old who is a very happy, handsome, loving and lucky little guy. Let’s start with why I am so lucky.
Until the other day I was living in the shelter with lots of other dogs in my ‘cage’ doing everything I could think of to get out. I smiled a lot and licked hands a lot and did whatever tricks I knew – and, guess what? It worked! Now I have a foster Mom who is great, doggy foster sisters who kind of look like me (and think I’m a really great guy) and likes to cuddle. (She says I’m the one who likes to cuddle but I tell her it takes two to cuddle!)
I’m an active and sweet little guy who is smart, learns quickly and wants to please. She says I’m affectionate, love to give gentle kisses and am very handsome. And when I want to get someone’s attention, I just look Mom right in the eyes so she will pick me up then we can snuggle (for all we are worth!)
I love the outdoors and to run in the yard with my doggy foster brother, Winston. Mom also said to tell you that I do well in the car and that you simply couldn’t find a better companion to do whatever you want to do, wherever you want to do it!
I’m working very hard on my housebreaking and Mom says that I am just about there (I am a puppy after all) . And after entertaining my family throughout the day, I go to sleep nicely in my crate because I’m such a good boy! And I sleep quietly all through the night until it’s morning. (As soon as Mom makes eye contact with me, then I know it’s time to get up and start the day.)
Oops I almost forgot to tell you: I am learning my commands, and already know ‘come’. Mom says I’m smart and want to please so there’s lots more that I can learn.
I enjoy the company of people most of all. If my Forever Home had people to play and snuggle with, go on long walks and rides and maybe a furkid to play with, that would be really ideal!
So if you are looking for a little lovebug of a guy who is playful , very active, smart and special in many ways, please ask for me.
Tails wags and bichon kisses,
Wonderful and whimsical Willie
