Hello People,
My name is Charismatic and Cuddly Cody-- and I’m a handsome, dashing, adorable, happy and tail-wagging Bichon guy of 18 months. My foster mom says that I’m affectionate, playful and smart—and am in love with life and everything it has to offer. I'm grateful to be a FurKid --and I show my appreciation every day!
Mom says I’m a great walker who loves cool mornings and early evenings. I like to take long walks around the lake --and love meeting people and pups along the way. Going to the dog park is also one of my most special things to do. It truly makes my day! There are always new friends to get to know and both the ones called ‘humans’ and those called ‘pups’ all fall in love with me (The two-legged ones tell Mom and Dad how amazing I am, too!)
I have other things I love (drum roll please) starting with my favorite new toy, a shark! Well it is stuffed and not real but it makes a really cool sound when I wrestle with it-- and I love making it squeak. I also love car rides (of any length) and getting petted, being cuddled and all the things Bichons truly love and appreciate!!)
Because I am smart, Mom has been teaching me commands (like 'sit' ‘come’ and ‘walk’) and says I learn fast and really want to please. Why I even come when she calls my name! Now, I know a lot of Bichons who don’t do that but I do! Mom says there are lots of other things I can learn too!. Do you want to teach me? I'll be the very best student you'll ever meet!
My Ideal Home MUST Have:
*Someone home most of the time
*Another active, playful dog for me to play with
*Adults or a family with kids
Experience level:
*Have had dogs as an adult
*Recent/current dog experience a plus
I’m just a very happy playful boy whose goal in life is to bring you joy and make you smile! And I do that very well! So if you have a FurKid or two, like to do lots of things and are active and enjoy walks and rides, I'm applying to be your new best friend. Please ask for me by name!
Tail wags and Bichon kisses,
Charming, Cuddly and Charismatic Cody

Our Adoption Procedure: We require a written application at www.bichonfurkids.org
2.
Approve Application
All applications are screened and responded to by an Applications Coordinator.
3.
Home Check
We require a home/yard safety check which is done with a checklist and photos due to COVID restrictions.
4.
Approve Application
Once approved, our Placement Volunteers get in touch then forward applications that appear to be a good fit to the foster parents
5.
Meet the Pet
They then contact adopters to schedule a virtual adoption visit prior to an adoption visit held outdoors in keeping with COVID requirements
Additional adoption info
Prospective adopters must complete an online application available on our web site. A volunteer then conducts a telephone interview to review the application, followed by requesting a home and yard safety check. Once that has been completed - and if the prospective adopter is approved -the Placement staff will talk with the approved adopter to provide information regarding pups in our foster program that may represent a fit. That will be followed by the foster Moms and Dads contacting the approved adopter to answer questions and schedule an adoption visit at the foster home.
We require an adoption contract for each furkid plus the adoption donation. The fee for pups over one year of age
is $400.00 and is tax-deductible. The adoption fee for our puppies is $500. Our dogs are spayed or neutered, microchipped and vaccinated when adopted and come with an 'adoption kit' which includes a bed, blanket, pillow, leash, collar, vitamins, toy and treats.
Donations beyond our adoption fee are also appreciated so that we can rescue and save more lives.

Our pets are all cared for in loving foster homes. While in foster care, the foster family ensures that they receive lots of tender loving care, have any medical needs addressed, get lots of exercise and training. This gives the foster family an opportunity to learn about each pup's personality so we can develop a bio that describes the furkid. In turn that knowledge enables us to better assist you in selecting a dog that will be the best fit for you and your family.
