Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi People.
My name is Higgins and I am a very handsome and happy purebred Bichon of six with a cheerful and loving personality. I’m an easy going guy who gets along well with everyone – big people, little people, people of all sizes and shapes. I also like other dogs and they like me ‘cause I’m a good guy. The only things I don’t like are elephants and giraffes (sorry guys: you’re just too big for me!)
Mom says I’m a very social guy, too. I love to meet, and greet, everyone. She says I have a real knack for making people smile. She says I’m really smart and playful, too. I have a lot of doggy foster brothers and sisters and we all have toys and like to play. Tug-of-war is one of my favorite games and I also like to play ‘chase the ball’. Dad says I’m really very good at that (Oh and he says I like to carry my toys around the yard. I tell him I’m giving them exercise!)
Mom says I am a very relaxed in the car and love my rides. I like quietly on the seat or on the floor and enjoy my outings. I also love my walks, am good on a leash and when I meet kids on our outings, well I simply love them. They like to pet me so I stand very still. And I let them walk me too, being as gentle as I can be.
I’m smart and want to please, Mom says if you like to talk, I’m a great listener! (She says I’m so loving and sweet that it’s hard to resist me – so she doesn’t even try!)
I ‘m a happy. loving guy that will do well in just about any family as long as there is at least one other furkid around – and people. A home with little people (kids or grandkids) would be great! So if you are looking for a happy, cheerful, cuddly, and clever fellow, well look no further. I’m here and I’m ready to meet you.
Your friend-in-waiting,
Happy and Handsome Higgins
