Story

Meet Archie! Age: senior Weight: 10 pounds Good with: kids (I live with two small humans and get along just fine with them), dogs (I prefer smaller dogs, but only bark at bigger dogs so they know who the boss is), I haven't met any cats just yet. House trained: yes, but sometimes I mark, so I wear a belly band so I don't have any accidents, and I really don't mind it one bit. It's easy peasy! Crate trained: yes Hey folks, Archie here! I’m a peppy little frenchie-chi mix. Look at these ears! Adorable!! I’m a friendly little fella and always ready to meet new human friends. Feel free to pick me up! I’ll lick you in the face and snuggle on your lap. I enjoy sleeping on the couch (the top cushion please! I am the boss after all), going for walks and sniffing around the yard. One of my favorite things is chasing toys and ripping all the stuffing out of them! Grr, I’m tough! At night and when the humans are gone for a long time, I snooze in my crate and it's my cozy place. Now that it's getting a bit colder, you can find me under the blanket. I hardly bark, so would probably do fine in an apartment. I’m all ready to go to my new forever home now, so come meet sweet little me! I promise if you make me a part of your family I'll show you all of my love! *Archie is being fostered in Madison, WI.

Story

Meet Kartwright! Age: senior Weight: 21 pounds Good with: Dogs, cats (kids unknown, since I don't live with them, but older kiddos I'm sure would be right up my alley!) House trained: yes Crate trained: no need for a crate, since I'm pretty perfect! Special needs: deaf and blind, but don't let that scare you away! I get around juuuust fine! I also take some thyroid meds, but that's easy breezy too, and it keeps me healthier! Hey there, I'm KartWright, but my foster mom calls me Kart, and my foster brother thinks I'm a Huckleberry. No big deal though, since I'm deaf and blind, so names are just names, right? Anyway, don't let my disabilities fool you, I'm still a total adventurer! I can find my way around the house in no time, and when I want something, you'll definitely know about it, because I'm not afraid to use my voice. Food, outside, attention - you name it, I want it! I'd prefer if my new human was home more often than not, so I can get all the things whenever I want! I'm an old guy now, and foster mom says I deserve to get all the things! Oh, and did I mention I love blankets and couches? Like, seriously love them. Sleeping next to you in bed would be paw-some. I'm also super chill with other dogs, like, any size, doesn't matter. I'm currently crashing with six of them, so I'm a pro at doggy playdates. I'm not too shabby with cats either, since I enjoy my alone time, so we can just hang out and do our own thing. I'm house-trained, as long as you stick to a schedule, and car rides are a breeze, but leashes, not so much. My foster mom says I'm a laid-back pup that just wants to be happy, so if you're looking for a chill buddy! *Kartwright is being fostered in Columbus, WI.

Story

Meet Lily! Age: senior Weight: 10 pounds (I'm just an itty bitty!) Good with: adults House trained: I use potty pads, but still have accidents sometimes. I'm working on being the best girl I can! Crate trained: in my foster home I am gated in the kitchen if my foster parents go away. Special needs: I can't hear a dang thing from a lifetime of chronic ear infections, and my ticker isn't that great, so I can't have some procedures that are recommended. Let me give you a little back story about how I came into rescue. I was found left alone after my owner passed away. I was very scared and hungry! I'm working on trusting that people want the best for me. I'm still a bit timid and don't always understand that I'm not going to be hurt by humans, and they just want to love me. It takes me a bit to warm up, but foster mom says after months in foster care I'm really starting to enjoy butt scratches and car rides. I'm still not a fan of being picked up and my fear of it makes me a little snappy about it, but if you use a blanket to pick me up, I'm more comfortable with it. Foster mom says she can see my desire to be a loving pet! I have even started to show signs of wanting to play with her! I'd thrive in a home that is low key, where I can be the only pet, as I don't have many socialization skills with other pets. I'll need my forever people to help me understand that I'll always get fed, and work with me on some of my food guarding. I get super excited about meal times and will run in happy circles, but I also seem to think it might get taken from me. I'm absolutely going to need a lot of patience and understanding from my new family, but I promise that once I settle in, and we work together, I can be the best girl. I WANT to be the best version of myself for you! *Lily is being fostered in New Glarus, WI. Albert's Dog Lounge is a specialty rescue focusing primarily on senior and special needs dogs.

Story

Meet Smalls! Age: Senior Weight: 8 pounds Breed: Chihuahua mix Good with: Dogs of all sizes, cats, older children House trained: When kept on a good schedule - we are using belly bands as back up Crate trained: Yes Special needs: Old healed injuries to his hips/pelvis Smalls is an amazing little guy and would be a perfect addition to your household! With his long slender legs, soft brown eyes, and adorably big ears, he resembles a tiny fawn. He is a friendly, affectionate dog who wants his foster mom and dad to sit down and cuddle with him whenever they can. When they are busy, he will find a soft spot near his canine foster brothers, a warm dog bed in which to cuddle, or a sunny space to soak up some rays. Smalls loves going for walks and has great leash manners! Despite a big size difference, he keeps up with his foster doggie brother on their daily walks. He is always up for a car ride where he can get out to socialize, meet new people, and greet friendly dogs. His favorite things are treats, sun bathing, and snuggling under blankets. Smalls rarely barks and is happy to let the other dogs guard the house. While Smalls loves everyone he meets, he might do best in a home with older children and adults because he is fragile due to his small size, slender frame, and some old healed injuries. Smalls prefers to walk on his own rather than being picked up. He also spends a lot of time under blankets, so you have to be careful not to sit on him. Smalls will be the perfect companion during these long winter months ahead and will likely be happy to skip walks on cold snowy days. **Smalls is fostered in the Madison area Albert's Dog Lounge is a specialty rescue focusing primarily on senior and special needs dogs.

Story

Meet Willie (Little Willie Willie won’t go home) Breed: ChiChi mix Rescue: Albert's Dog Lounge Age: Senior Weight: 17 lbs Fun fact: a young girl insisted I lost my eye in a battle with a cheetah. I’m pretty sure that’s not what happened, but 🤷🏼‍♀️ Foster home: Fitchburg, WI Activity level: Medium/ High, I love interaction and play. Friendly with: dogs, but would do well as an only also. Greets cats with a wagging tail and appropriate interaction Sleep style: dog beds during the day, his crate at night….. but he would love to sleep with his human! Meals: Breakfast: 4 raw nuggets (Northwest Naturals). The rest of the day he is free fed like my dogs on a combo of Farmina ancestral grains (lamb) and Taste of the Wild ancestral grains (bison and venison) with salmon oil on it. Gets supplements for allergy and gut health (WinPro Pet) Gets "cookies" as rewards (locally made dog treats) Snore-o-meter: 0 Bark-o-meter: 3, barks when someone comes to the door Shedding meter: 4 Favorite season: Summer, he's a southern boy and this northern climate is a tad chilly. He likes to nap in the sun. Personality: Spunky, resourceful, and affectionate Best feature: His loyalty and affection, his sleek shiny body and his zest for life!! Walkout Song: "Happy" by Pharrell Williams because he is always smiley and wagging his tail, he LOVES life. Signature color: purple, because it pops against my gorgeous fur Signature style: Hawaiian shirts: He's hanging up the skull and crossbones pirate life and looking for a new crew. Director of shenanigans on a cruise ship sounds nice, or teaching the youngins to sniff out buried treasure. Needs: Someone who is willing to give me all the love and attention I crave! Loves: HE LOVES the dog park, running and sniffing and chasing/ being chased by his foster sister makes him smile really big! Spayed Microchipped Walks well on a leash Excellent car rider Does well in a crate, but I behave and really don’t need to be in one.

Story

About Me: Name: Domino Breed (or best guess): Chihuahua mix Approximate Age: 8 yr Gender: Male Approximate Weight: 12 lb Adoption Fee: Reduced Fee $300 Requirements: Patient Adopter Why In Rescue: Owner passed away Profile: Domino has been with Bichon and Little Buddies for over 2 years as we have worked with him to have him become comfortable with humans other than his owner. When he was surrendered, we were told he is paranoid - and that does fit him. He gets worried when he has a tag on his collar or when he is wearing a sweater. He has stranger danger, so isn't going to want to be in a household where people are coming and going a lot or where he is expected to go visiting. While he has some issues, he is a funny and loving guy to the people he has bonded with. He will sit excitedly, waiting for one of his chosen ones to kneel down and open his kennel door so he can leap out and give a hug. It is now time for him to venture out and find a family of his own. While he lived with other dogs in his previous home, at the shelter there are a number of dogs he doesn't get along with - primarily males, so he may do best as an only dog or a female dog with a slow introduction. Domino went for a short home visit with a volunteer to see how he would be in a home. He had issues with other dogs in the house when the foster mom had food. We are hoping for an only dog home for him to lessen the chance for issues if he decided to try to guard his person or his food. He did warm up to visitors with some time, but will likely always need a slow introduction. If you are looking to adopt a dog that really needs you, Domino may be that guy. He is an athletic little guy who will climb up to the top of his kennel so he can look out and see what is going on. If you can offer Domino a patient and loving home, please fill out the pre-adoption application and we can discuss more things about him. If interested in adoption, the first step is filling out the pre-adoption application at http://www.bichonrescues.com/pre-adoption-form-dog If link isn't clickable, please copy/paste or visit http://www.bichonrescues.com. We do our best to evaluate the dogs while they are with us, but they sometimes act different in the shelter environment than they do in a home. Many times we do not know the actual breed/mix or age of the dog, in that case we use our best guess as to breed and age. We are located in Mukwonago, WI. Adopters must come to us, we do not ship our dogs. Please do not apply for a dog until you are ready to adopt. Once an application is approved you will be notified by email to make an appointment to meet the dog. All dogs are seen by appointment only. The adoption fee through Bichon and Little Buddies Rescue is $200 - $550 depending on the age of the dog, which includes Wi State Sales Tax. Included in this fee is your new companion who will be spayed/neutered, have a current Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (as required by state law), current on age appropriate vaccinations, heartworm tested (if old enough) and started on preventative, microchipped, and given a general wormer. Other medical needs will also have been taken care of, such as dentals and treating ear infections. To assist you and your new pet in adjusting to life together, you may chose to take an 8 week age appropriate obedience training course at For Pet's Sake Dog Training in Mukwonago, WI for $75 (up to $230 value). You may opt to take Puppy Kindergarten, Adult Beginners, or Small Dogs Big Hearts. You must register for the class within 90 days of adoption for the reduced fee. For more information on the classes visit www.forpetssake.cc More important information: ***We are a Wisconsin based rescue and do not ship our pets. If you are considering adoption you must be willing to drive to meet and adopt the pet, as well as bring the pet back to us if the adoption doesn't work. We adopt primarily in WI and IL, but will consider applicants in MN, IA, and MI.*** ***Please do not set up an appointment to meet the animals until you are ready to take your pet home. If the meeting results in a match, you can often take the dog/cat home the same day or within a couple days if the medical care hasn't been completed. We are not able to hold pets for adopters beyond this time. Thanks for understanding.*** ***While we hope all of our adoptions lead to permanent homes for the animals we place, sometimes things just don't work out. We do have a 30 day trial period. For the first 30 days, if you or Bichon and Little Buddies decide that the adoption isn't a good match for either the humans or the pet, the adoption fee will be refunded minus $75 within 30 days of the return of the dog. Bichon and Little Buddies also requires adopters to return the pet to us at any time that they are unable or unwilling to care for the animal anymore.*** ***We do not show dogs without an appointment. The first step in adoption is filling out the pre-adoption application at http://www.bichonrescues.com/pre-adoption-form-dog Please do not call/email until AFTER you have filled out an application.*** Bichon and Little Buddies is a State Licensed Rescue # 268555-DS November 5, 2024, 8:05 pm
