Rescue FAQs

Bichon FurKids Rescue focuses on Bichon Frises and Bichon mixes in need of forever homes. We rescue from local shelters, as well as provide services for pets who are surrendered directly to us. Our dogs are cared for in foster homes where they learn to be socialized, housebroken and to become part of a family. Our services are highly personalized - and we work directly with our volunteers to help rescued dogs successfully transition to new homes and lives.
*San Diego, Orange, Riverside and Los Angeles counties as well as San Francisco, Oakland, San Jose, Sacramento and major Northern California cities as well adopting furkids to families and individuals residing in Arizona and Nevada.

Adoption steps

  1. Submit Application
    1. Our Adoption Procedure: We require a written application at www.bichonfurkids.org
  2. Approve Application
    1. All applications are screened and responded to by an Applications Coordinator.
  3. Home Check
    1. We require a home/yard safety check which is done with a checklist and photos due to COVID restrictions.
  4. Approve Application
    1. Once approved, our Placement Volunteers get in touch then forward applications that appear to be a good fit to the foster parents
  5. Meet the Pet
    1. They then contact adopters to schedule a virtual adoption visit prior to an adoption visit held outdoors in keeping with COVID requirements

Additional adoption info

Prospective adopters must complete an online application available on our web site. A volunteer then conducts a telephone interview to review the application, followed by requesting a home and yard safety check. Once that has been completed - and if the prospective adopter is approved -the Placement staff will talk with the approved adopter to provide information regarding pups in our foster program that may represent a fit. That will be followed by the foster Moms and Dads contacting the approved adopter to answer questions and schedule an adoption visit at the foster home.

We require an adoption contract for each furkid plus the adoption donation. The fee for pups over one year of age
is $400.00 and is tax-deductible. The adoption fee for our puppies is $500. Our dogs are spayed or neutered, microchipped and vaccinated when adopted and come with an 'adoption kit' which includes a bed, blanket, pillow, leash, collar, vitamins, toy and treats.

Donations beyond our adoption fee are also appreciated so that we can rescue and save more lives.
