Story
Meet Nikki! Hi there! My name is Nikki, and I'm an adorable 5-year-old female Havanese looking for a loving forever home. I'm a sweet, gentle little girl who's a bit shy when we first meet. I just like to take things slowly and make sure everything feels safe before I open my heart. Once I know I can trust you, you'll discover what a loving companion I am. I'm also pretty much the same way with other dogs. I get along with them just fine—I just appreciate a little time to settle in and get comfortable. I'm really enjoying life with my foster mom. One of my favorite things is curling up on her lap for naps and soaking up all the cuddles she has to offer. I'm a quiet, easygoing girl who enjoys walks, although I don't need to go very far to be happy. A peaceful stroll and some quality cuddle time are perfect for me. I'm still settling into my foster home, so my personality is continuing to blossom. As my foster family gets to know me better, they'll be sharing more about me soon. If you think I might be the perfect little girl for you, please visit bichonrescueoc.org and submit an adoption application. I can't wait to meet my forever family! Love, Nikki 🩷

Story
Hi, my name is Dexter. I'm a happy-go-lucky guy who got dealt a bad hand in life, but I am not letting that get me down. I live life to my fullest despite my mobility issues! I'm a nine-year-old bundle of energy and joy. I'm a Maltese-poodle mix (who looks an awful lot like a Bichon, in my auntie's opinion!) I was born with a neurological disorder that affects my equilibrium and my ability to walk--but I don't let that get me down! I'm too smart for that...nothing stops me. BROC has equipped me with the latest and greatest doggie wheels, of course, and I'm a champion driver--but even without wheels I can scramble around the yard to chase my foster brother - as well as any other dog. My technique might not win awards, but I don't care! I get to where I want to go, with or without wheels. Speaking of "go"...I am fully housebroken. All I need is someone to take me to the "potty place" a few times a day (same as any other dog), and that is one of the reasons I need a special person. You see, I can't get to the yard on my own, and it isn't safe for me to be alone out there anyway. My special person also would need to ensure my safety in the home. Being that I'm not so graceful, my person needs to make sure the home is safe - without things that could harm me if I were to, let's say, meet them head-on at cruising speed. My current foster mom created a large, enclosed "Dexter Den" for me, complete with a big bed, my favorite toys, water of course, and plenty of space to move around. I stay in my den when my foster mom needs to leave the house. When she's home, I just hang out in my den or roam around. The bottom line is this: Apart from my neurological condition, I am a very normal, healthy dog who is full of joy and very loving. Everyone I meet falls in love with me, because I know how to put on the charm! I don't require a lot of work, but I do need special help and attention...thus it takes a special person. If you have room in your heart and home for delightful me, please complete an adoption application. https://bichonrescueoc.org/adoption-applicationk

Meet Bella – A Sweet Soul Looking for Her Forever Person ❤️ Hello, everyone! My name is Bella, and I'm a beautiful 10-year-old Bichon mix with a heart full of love to give. Life recently changed when my parents could no longer care for me, so now I'm officially a BROC babe and ready to start my next chapter. I'm a calm, easygoing girl who is completely housebroken, walks beautifully on a leash, and rides like a perfect lady in the car. My favorite place is simply by my person's side. Whether we're enjoying a leisurely stroll, relaxing on the couch, or just spending quiet time together, I'm happiest when we're together. I think I'd be a wonderful companion for an older couple or someone looking for a loyal best friend to share life's simple pleasures. I'll happily encourage you to get outside for a few walks each day, then come home and snuggle up for some well-earned relaxation. If you think we might be the perfect match, I'd love to meet you! Please visit BichonRescueOC.org and complete an adoption application. I can't wait to find my forever family!

She's looking for a forever home where she can be the center of someone's world. Penny would do best as the only pet in the home, where she can enjoy all of the attention and affection she deserves. She absolutely loves spending time with her person and is always ready to join you for a walk or hop in the car for an adventure.

HIRO IS A PUPPY AND MUST GO TO A HOME WITH ANOTHER DOG. 🌸 Meet Hiro! 🌸 Hi everyone! My name is Hiro, and I'm a darling little three-month-old Maltipoo puppy with a heart as big as my adorable puppy eyes! I'm playful, loving, charming, and always ready for my next adventure. Whether it's chasing toys, exploring the backyard, learning new things, or snuggling up after a busy day, I'm happiest when I'm with my people. Since I'm still just a baby, I have lots to learn about the world. I'll need a family that's ready to help me with puppy training, teach me good manners, and shower me with lots of patience, love, and positive encouragement. The good news? I'm smart, eager to please, and excited to grow into the best companion ever! I'm healthy, full of puppy energy, and looking for an active family that will include me in all of life's adventures and love me forever. If you think you could be my perfect match, please visit BichonRescueOC.org and submit an adoption application. I can't wait to meet my forever family! Love and puppy kisses, Hiro 🐾

Story
Charli is available for adoption, but HE IS IN SANCTUARY, which means BROC will support his care and needs for the rest of his life. Meet Charli!! Charli is a senior male poodle mix with a heart as gentle as his curly coat. Though he has lost his sight, he has not lost his sweet spirit. He moves through life with quiet trust, relying on the kindness of people around him. Despite his challenges, Charli remains affectionate and resilient, always ready for soft pets and calm companionship. His age and blindness mean he requires extra care, and financial support is greatly needed to ensure he receives the medical attention, comfort, and love he deserves in his golden years. Supporting Charli is not just helping a dog in need—it’s giving a faithful soul the chance to live out his days in safety and peace. If you would like to help support Charli, please visit our website at bichonrescueoc.org and click the donate button. Your donation makes a difference!
