Bichon Frise puppies and dogs in Waynesboro, Virginia

Hey there, friends! My name is Jay Jay, and I'm here to steal your heart with my bubbly personality and irresistible charm. I may be a four-year-old Bichon mix, but let me tell you, I've got the energy of a puppy and the attention span of a squirrel. First things first, let's talk about my favorite things: kids, dogs, and people. I've been hanging out with some curious creatures called cats in my foster home too. I give them their space, but I'll admit, I might get a little nervous when one of them gets a bit too friendly. You know, boundaries and all that jazz. Now, let's talk potty training. I'm proud to say I'm acing it! I'm all about those outdoor adventures, so if you give me the chance, I'll happily do my business outside where it belongs. But hey, accidents happen, right? So, let's make sure I get plenty of opportunities to stretch my legs, explore the great outdoors.... and make you proud with my potty successes. Here's the deal with crates: my last owners made me spend a lot of time in them, so they used to freak me out a bit. But with some patience and lots of positive vibes, I'm learning that it can actually be a cozy little retreat. So, if you're willing to help me turn that crate into my safe haven, I'll be forever grateful! Okay, let's talk treats. Who doesn't love a tasty snack? Am I right? I'm a quick learner, especially when there's a yummy treat involved. So, although this is completely new to me, if you're up for some fun training sessions, count me in! Oh, did I mention car rides? They're the absolute best! Just give me a nod, and I'll be ready to hop in and join you on your next adventure. And walks? Oh boy, I live for those! Whether it's a leisurely stroll or a brisk jog, I'm game for it all. Now, let's address the elephant in the room: my excitement levels can sometimes go through the roof. I'm working on it, I promise! Sometimes when I'm overstimulated, I try to express my enthusiasm by humping my friends... But hey, who amongst us hasn’t? I know it's rude, but can you blame me for wanting to spread a little "love"? I'm working on appropriate ways to channel my energy, and a small dose of Trazodone really helps keep me in check. So, what do you say? Are you ready to welcome a spunky, affectionate, and oh-so-lovable guy like me into your home? I promise, with a bit of time and a whole lot of love, I'll be the best companion you could ever ask for. Apply for me at greendogsunleashed.org/adopt today! At the time you are seeing this post, this dog is still available for adoption. But please know that we may be working on multiple applications already, and any one of them could be approved at any time. Please READ THIS ENTIRE DESCRIPTION and complete an adoption application, if you are interested in any of our animals. Application at www.greendogsunleashed.org If you send an inquiry to ask if the dog is still available, or just tell us you are interested, your inquiry will not be answered. FILL OUT AN APPLICATION. We can do NOTHING without that. No, we cannot tell you if he would be a match for your family without seeing an application. PLEASE KEEP READING for info. */*/* PLEASE NOTE: The first communication you will receive after completing an application will be an email response, which will have instructions on how to proceed. Please check your inbox AND spam folders for the next 48 hours, for this email. We will not begin processing an application without the information requested in that email. */*/* We are happy to consider applicants from out of state on most dogs. Please read the description to see if this dog is an exception. If the applicant is approved to adopt, they MUST be willing to come to our location in Troy, VA, for a meet and greet. If all parties agree that the pup and family are a good fit, they would take the pup home at that time. For more information about our mission and for an APPLICATION for adoption, please go to www.greendogsunleashed.com. GDU does ask a minimum adoption fee of $400.00. This does not even come close to covering all expenses created by animals while in rescue. We are funded solely by the angels and volunteers willing to donate time and finances. This minimum fee includes DAPP, rabies if age appropriate,, heartworm test and preventative, if age appropriate, and flea and tick treatment, as well as neutering or spaying, if the animal is medically sound to undergo surgery. In an attempt to avoid tummy upset from a sudden change of food, the foster family may include a small, transitional bag of the food the dog/puppy has been eating. And if the dog/puppy has grown attached to a special item (like a toy or blanket), they may send that along, as well. */*/* Young puppies will receive age-appropriate vaccines, and will be spayed/neutered prior to adoption. Adopters may be required to provide additional puppy boosters and at 16 weeks of age, a rabies vaccine. Future annual vaccines, testing and monthly heartworm preventative are REQUIRED, and will be the financial responsibility of the adopter. *****Due to the sheer number of animals and applications in our program, coupled with a limited number of volunteers, applicants MUST have patience as we process applications.   If you do not hear back from us, the animal may have been adopted.   We strive to let people know but sadly cannot offer reasons for denial beyond that.  Any harassment of our volunteers will go unanswered and we will simply block you.   Our volunteers spend their time working hard to ensure the very best for each animal.   Please remember the animal, not the applicant, is our client.*****  ##2006496##
