My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

A Package Deal!

Eddie age 16, and Charlie age 8, lost their Mom when she went to assisted living and couldn't care for them any longer. They are currently with our foster and are now ready for adoption.

Although Charlie is fine without Eddie... Eddie really relies on Charlie and will cry if he is separated from him so we do not want to separate them so they are a "Package Deal" and need to be adopted together. They should be in a home with no other pets as Charlie... although is fine with other dogs outside of the home... in his own domain he can guard his food from other dogs... so best for them to be the only dogs living in the home.
We understand that taking on a 16 year old dog may be a lot for someone so we are willing to cover vet bills for Eddie's life if you adopt both Eddie and Charlie together.

Eddie has a some arthritis, and we had our vet give him a shot of Bedinvetmab (aka Librela) & some gabapenten for pain... He should only require 1 or 2 more shot in the next two months 28... and then he should be good. Already he is like a new dog! He is now jumping up on the couch when before he could bearly walk without stiffness. Amazing!

Charlie is a real character and loves to cuddle with his humans. He can be a little possessive of his human if other dogs also want attention (another reason why he and Eddie should be the only pets in the home) . He likes going for walks or running around a fence in yard.

If you can give both Charlie and Eddie a furever home, please fill out an application at this link: https://bichonrescuenj.com/bichon-frise-rescue-nnj-adoption-app.html

If you have already filled out OUR application, please email NNJBichonRescue@yahoo.com and I will look up your app by your email.

Charlie and Eddie are currently in foster care in South Jersey... so applicants should be withing 3 hours driving distance of there.
