Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello everybody!
My name is Precious and, according to my foster mom, I live up to my name. I’m a personable, pleasant and dainty little bichon who is both demure and sweet (more on that in a minute) and very easy to have around.
Like many of my furkid brothers and sisters, I have a special story to tell. And it is being told by a pretty little girl who is pushing 12 pounds, is 12 years old and ready to spend the rest of her life as your loving companion.
You see, once upon a time I had a wonderful home with a Mom who loved and took care of me. But one day my Mom passed away and I was brought to a shelter by someone who didn’t understand what that would be like for a delicate little girl like me. You might have read about me because there were a lot of people saying that ‘somebody’ better get me out of that place. Luckily, my BFK Aunties heard about me and scooped me up, thank goodness! (They could see that I was a darling little girl who would make a wonderful friend.)
Now, I am a little bit older than the average furkid you see on the website, but I’m all bichon. I love the things that bichons love like going on walks, (I move really fast when I see the leashes come out! and going for rides (I sit on the seat with my paws on the window and look out) And I also love to watch TV, cook or read a book (Oh, silly me! That’s what Mom and Dad do but I’m happy to participate.)
Besides enjoying my walks and rides, I love doing anything I can with my people. I’m a mellow little girl who loves to walk around the yard and sniff flowers. I might follow Mom or Dad from room to room then go to my little bed or the couch and curl up and take a nap. Dad says I’m not intrusive and always nice to have around – and that I don’t bark very much (He says that’s really a plus!) and that my being so mellow is really nice.
If you have to leave for a while, I’m happy to hang out. Mom says I can relax and sleep now (now that I don’t have to worry about something happening to me at that shelter) and I’m healing inside. I also saw a very nice man called a Veterinary Specialist. He gave me a shot to help my eye because the pressure was building up. Whew! I’m feeling better now and my eye isn’t hurting. I don’t see very well out of it but get around fine and am so happy to be pain-free.
So I’m looking for someone who wants a sweet, demure and loving little girl who is demure, agreeable and will help write a happy ending to my story. I’ll be waiting for you to let my Aunties know- then we can go for a nice walk or ride and take a nap together.
Tail wags and smiles,
Petite, Poised and Pretty Precious
