Rescue FAQs

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.
New Jersey, Northern Delaware, Eastern Pennsylvania & surrounding areas. We place dogs in any adoptable home within reasonable driving distance as long as we can secure a home visit and the potential adopter is willing to come and pick up the dog.

Adoption steps

  1. Submit Application
    Once an application is submitted, it will be reviewed by one of our volunteers and the family's vet will be contacted for a reference.
  2. Home Check
    If the family passes step 1, we schedule a home visit. If possible, we bring the dog along during the home visit.
  3. Sign Adoption Contract
    Following the home visit, IF the family is approved for that specific dog and all parties are agreeable, an adoption contract is signed.
