Bichon Frise puppies and dogs in Ontario

Vita was found as a stray in South Korea and taken into foster by a local rescue. He was very matted when found so had to be shaved down. Vita is now ready for adoption as he is neutered, utd vaccinations, dewormed, microchipped, Snap 4dx negative, and he comes with a vet Health Certificate. Vita is scared of some of some dogs and tends to bark at them when out for walks. Lots of treats and he soon realizes all is good. Lots of patience and training with this boy to show him the world isn't scary. If interested, please email dcdgavel@gmail.com for an adoption application.

Mongle is a sweet girl who may be a bit shy at first, but she quickly warms up—especially when food is involved! She loves affection and will show her belly when she’s comfortable. Personality: She has a gentle demeanor and is easily carried. Although she enjoys saying hello to other dogs, she prefers calmer interactions and can become overwhelmed by overly energetic pups. She gets along well with dogs of all sizes and ages, as well as cats; she spent about 1-2 months in a foster home with cats. Energy Level & Exercise: With a moderate energy level, Mongle enjoys outdoor walks and is calm indoors. While she does pull on the leash due to her curiosity and desire to sniff everything, she overall enjoys her time outdoors. Behavior with Resources: She exhibits some resource guarding behaviors, particularly towards people and other dogs. If you attempt to take something away from her, she may growl or snap. It’s important to approach her with patience in these situations. Separation and Crate Training: Mongle does not experience separation anxiety but may develop it if she receives excessive attention from her owner. She will bark if she needs something. In the car, she is calm when in her crate, but she does experience motion sickness, so keeping her in a crate is recommended. Potty Training: She is capable of both indoor and outdoor pottying, but with regular outdoor access, she will prefer to go outside. Mongle is looking for a loving home where she can feel secure and cherished. If you think you can provide the right environment for her, please reach out!

Yes Please elaborate on your foster dog's behavior in the crate. Sleeps inside crate overnight outside of our bedroom fine. If we leave her in the crate when we leave the house, she will feel a little anxious. If we are inside the house, and we crate her, assuming all other needs are met, she will enjoy the chew in the crate. I leave my foster dog alone for 1 hour per day. Does your foster dog show signs of separation anxiety? Yes Please elaborate. Rarely we have to leave her at the house for longer than 1 hour, and she would bark out of frustration when we leave.

No Strengths/areas they have improved on: Luxi has really improved on her socialization and trust with humans. She now loves to cuddle with us. She's also really improved on getting used to living in a house and new environments. Before, she was reluctant to go through doors and narrow spaces. she also wouldn't go up or down stairs. Now she's happily cruising around the house and able to navigate doors and stairs with little hesitation. Transportation-any motion sickness or anxiety in vehicles? Yes, motion sickness in vehicle. She drools and even vomits for long rides. We have tried a homeopathic remedy with little success so now trying Cerennia , anti nausea medication.
