My personality

My story

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

Ready to meet an irresistible pair of the sweetest Bichon Frise? We are Kerry and Jamie, and despite a very sad situation, we have recovered and are ready for our “happily ever after” with you! We were rescued from a neglectful situation and brought to Forever Loved where we found a pot of gold at the end of a pretty faded rainbow. Both of us were itchy, red skinned smelly messes, covered with ticks. Our nails were outgrown and our hair coat, what was left of them, was a dirty tangled mess. You will be pleased to know our bloodwork is great and our dentals went without a hitch.

Kerry here - I am a !7lb 13 year old female Bichon who just loves to lay in a comfy bed and relax near you. I am so sweet and gentle, and I’ve done so well with other dogs, kids, and lots of strangers. Surprisingly, all my health issues were mostly skin related and I itched like crazy. Some spots on my skin had burst and were quite unsightly and I handled the surgery and stitches like a champ.

Jamie here - I, too and a 17lb 13 year old Bichon, and I am a male. I’m slightly more outgoing than my sis, mostly because I’m hoping that you will have a yummy treat for me! I’m great with other dogs, I’ve met kids and done well, and I’m just all around cute and delightful. It was so hard to be itchy and uncomfortable, but these people here are heaven sent and I have a clean bill of health.

We are both very delightful and affectionate, and we walk nicely on the leash. Car rides are fine, and there seems to be nothing we don’t like. We may need a tune up on house training, as in our last two years, we were just ignored and given potty pads, but if you take us out on a schedule, we will happily potty outside. Our skin is no longer red and irritated, and we are proof that great care, great nutrition, and great vet care make a big difference. We also have gotten so much love! We can’t wait to share our gratitude with you - won’t you apply to adopt us as a bonded pair?

More about this rescue

Forever Loved Pet Sanctuary (FLPS) is the only senior-only animal rescue in Maricopa County, Arizona. Formed in 2012 as a non-profit 501[c][3] organization, the focus of FLPS is to save senior animals who are often overlooked by providing them the opportunity to thrive in a safe and caring environment. FLPS serves a public need by offering housing to a limited number of senior pets.

This safe haven, takes the burden of temporary care and housing of senior animals off of local shelters. Inevitably, local shelters resort to euthanizing these abandoned, senior animals at an alarming rate. According to a 2012 statistics report, Maricopa County Animal Care and Control (MCACC) euthanizes one animal every eight minutes it is open to the public. Euthanasia for senior residents is the primary option for most local shelters because they tend to focus their efforts on a high adoption model that includes younger “more adoptable” animals. FLPS works with local shelters and rescues to identify the senior animals in need and provide a streamlined process for interested men, women and families who wish to adopt.
