Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello People!
I’m Sam, a charming little Bichon boy of nine. I have a loving heart, am very sweet and easy to have around. Sadly, though, my family recently lost everything – and had to move. Although they had adopted me when I was only ten weeks old, I could no longer stay with them. They told me I had to be brave and let them go…
The good news is that now I am a fur kid and have adapted well to the loss of my family, settling in my foster home with my doggy foster brother very quickly. My Mom says I am very good with children and I love other dogs. She says my little foster brother teases me all the time and I am just as patient and kind as can be. I am a quiet, attentive, easily entertained sort of guy, happy to cuddle and just love you.
I am potty trained and learned to use the doggie door, although I prefer to scratch at the door to let my new family know I need to go out. I love to be close to them and follow everyone around, hoping to be cuddled or have a chance to snuggle.
Mom says I love the car, travel very well, and am as cute, smart and adorable as any Bichon knows how to be (and that’s saying a lot!) I am looking for a family who will love and be there for me, as I miss my people very much and have a LOT of love and a lot of loving to share.
If you can open your heart to me I know we can be the best of friends. So if I sound like your kind of guy, please complete an application at www.bichonfurkids.org/applications and we can meet. Mom says you will soon be calling me Sam, the sweetie. And, if you live in Arizona, that's better yet....'cause that's where I am!
