Jethro is a 13-year-old, neutered male bichon. He is the brother of Archie. He is extremely friendly and loves to play and is the more active of the two boys. Click on Archie's listing to read more about the situation from which the two boys came and to read more about how to apply. Both boys have been groomed, have had a dental cleaning, and are ready to go off on a new adventure. We would consider adoptive or foster homes for these two boys since they are currently in a foster home where a dog aggressive dog resides. Therefore, they must remain separated from the other dog at all times and this is very challenging for the foster family. However, they came from a very terrible situation and needed to be removed immediately so the family agreed to take them. However, if we can find a more suitable foster family, we will consider moving them unless an adoptive one becomes available first.

Meeting our pets is done on an appointment basis, usually at your home, but occasionally at their foster homes. However, step one is an adoption application so that we can make sure that you would be an appropriate home for the dog you are interested in adopting. In this way, no one's time is wasted. So please complete an application first. Once that's been accomplished, someone will contact you about the next step.

More about this rescue
Delaware Valley Bichon Rescue is a 501c3, non-profit, all-volunteer organization that rescues, rehabilitates and rehomes bichons and bichon mixes (and when necessary, their companions) who find themselves in need of a new home. We work with vets, shelters and private families who need our assistance. We take dogs in any condition and of any age, as long as we can find a foster home for them. We are a foster-based organization and therefore we do not have a facility. For that reason, the first step in our adoption process is an application.
