Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Fluffy is a Very Sweet, Male, Bichon. He is approx 2 & 1/2 years old, neutered, up to date on vaccines, healthy and about 20 lbs. He is good with other dogs and good with kids. He was taken in last year by a family that saved him from going to a shelter, however, Fluffy has separation anxiety and it is too much for the family with their busy schedules and they are really not home enough and fluffy is not happy when they our not home. They feel Fluffy would be much happier in a home where his companion(s) were home most of the day or took him with them. Fluffy is mostly house trained but needs help with some leg lifting issues, so the person that adopts him MUST be willing to help him with some more training and also be willing to put a belly band on him at night and when not being watch until they see he is fully trained (We can supply you with some belly bands). If you are not willing to deal with this and help train him, then this is NOT the dog for you.
The ideal home for fluffy would be with a retired person or couple, or someone that works from home or a stay at home mom with older children. Although he is good with younger children too, we prefer that Fluffy be the center of attention in his new home. He would also do well in a home with another dog to keep him company and to cuddle up with, as he has become attached to their Golden as seen in some of these photos.
