Fine with cats Sleep style: Snuggled in a too small chair Meals: Good quality kibble for my bladder stones Snore-o-meter: 0 Bark-o-meter: 1 Shedding meter: 10 Favorite season: Winter, because she has lots the most glorious coat and likes to show it off Personality: Laid back, sweet, and curious Best feature: She is the sweetest, calmest dog. If you smile at her and tell her what a good girl she is, she smiles back and wags her tail and comes to you for pets.

Story
About Me: Name: Uma, Una, Urban Breed (or best guess): Australian Shepherd/Poodle Approximate Age: 3-4 months Gender: Female Approximate Weight: 12 lb on 12/15/24 Adoption Fee: $650 each Requirements: Loving family ready for life with a puppy Why In Rescue: surrender Profile:   Uma, Una, and Urban came from a commercial breeder/puppy farmer who was not able to sell them to a broker or pet store.  While they have never lived in a home, they are happy playful pups that can't wait to be part of a family.  They have been spayed/neutered, started on vaccinations including Rabies, dewormed at least once, microchipped and put on heartworm/flea/tick preventative as well as had a vet exam.  If interested in one of these cute and active pups, please fill out the application at www.bichonrescues.com  We do put the needs of the dog's first, so it is nothing personal if we determine a particular dog isn't suitable for your specific home and living situation. 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.  Please note, filling out inquiry forms on Petfinder or Adoptapet and/or their application forms does not constitute an application for one of our dogs.  Priority in responding to inquires and applications is always to the applications filled out on our website, time constraints limit the number of other inquires we can reply to. 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 $495 for most adults and up to $650 for puppies 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 December 17, 2024, 1:16 pm

She is now ready for a family of her own that she can prove her love to. She is very affectionate, playful and social with other dogs. She doesn't ever want to have to be on her own again and has quickly learned her house training, leash walking and the fine art of sleeping through the night on a cozy dog bed. Kimber is gentle with kids as well. Her puppy, Rob, will be available for adoption in a week or so.     We are located at S47 W30760 State Road 59, North Prairie, WI As always, we never guarantee the breed OR the size they'll be as an adult.

GEMMA IS BEING FOSTERED IN BLOOMINGTON IL Meet our precious girl, Gemma, who has MASTERED her puppy dog stare!  Sweet Gemmy NEEDS a hero.  She is a gorgeous black tri female that was found in a stray.  She is approximately 2 years old an is playful with other dogs.  Gemma is a goofy girl, that has a high prey drive, so no kitties, bunnies or other small pets is required for her. However, what she does make up that with providing you with BOUNDLESS cuddles.  She wants nothing more than to spend her time being as close as she can be with her person.  Gemma weighs around 45 lbs, and she is a typical aussie who is active and playful. While she loves a good evening of chilling at home, she equally loves running around the house showing off all her stuffies and squeaky toys!  Gemma is a bit cautious around new people and places, but her foster home has done some nice training work with her in exposing her to new people and new things, providing her with some positive experiences.  She is responding very well to the training and would love to have an adoptive home of her own that would continue this training for her.  She has made TREMENDOUS progress in her foster home, meeting new people, hearing new sounds and experiencing all the world has to offer.  She would do best in a home that is on the quiet side and does not have a lot of visitors.   Gemma is potty trained and crate trained and even puts herself in her kennel at night. She does have excellent house manners and can be left out without any mischief.  Gemma loves toys and bones and shares nicely with her foster brotherr. Fetch and chase are two of her favorite games to play.  Gemma is still learning to enjoy car rides so more positive experiences (pup cups) would be highly recommended.   Gemma is spayed and up-to-date on all shots and preventatives A home without young kids or small animals (cats, bunnies, etc) A physically fenced yard to exercise freely A patient adopter(s) to continue the training and socialization her foster is providing Gemma's WANTS Another social (same sized) dog in the home A quieter home without much coming and going A spot on the couch next to her best friend for life! ##1823568##

Story
Waldo is fostered in Waterford, MI. Hello potential adopters! Quick question.... Do you know the "Where's Waldo?" books with the guy in the red and white sweater? Well, look no further because you just found him! Our Waldo (affectionately called Wally) is way cuter, adorable, and 4-legged! Wally is a standard size, blue merle malewith a bobtail and lots of personality in a 45 lb. package! He is about 14 months old. He came into rescue from an Amish farm.  Wally is an adolescent so that means typical aussie energy and playfulness. Wally enjoys running, playing, and hanging with his foster family. He would love to join you in whatever adventures or outings you would like to include him in. Wally is good with other dogs, so if you have one already, great! If not, no problem. He would enjoy playdates with other dogs if possible.  Wally is potty trained and crate trained. He is smart and eager to learn new things! He would love a family that will engage him in activities that will challenge him mentally and physically and this will also help in creating a bond with him. He also has a silly personality that is irresistible! Wally was a little timid/shy when meeting new people or being in new situations or environments, but he has made a lot of progress accepting and being comfortable with new experiences. Wally would love a more active family looking for their forever fur friend! In return he will be a loyal and lively companion who will bring joy and entertainment to your life!  Does Wally sound like your match? If so, and you would like to chat about or meet Wally, just click on Adopt and fill out the application.  We will be waiting to hear from you! Wally is neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccinations and receiving monthly preventatives for fleas, ticks, and heartworms.  Proof of heartworm preventatives for all past and current pets is required to be adopted from us. Please visit our website for more information on our adoption process, see our adoption fees, and find a link to our adoption application.  www.MidwestAustralianShepherdRescue.org NOTE:  All of our dogs live in foster homes with volunteers so we need an approved application on file to set up a meet with a dog you might have an interest in.  Please visit our website for more information on our adoption process, our adoption fees and a link to our adoption application.  We pride ourselves on matches that work for both the dog and your family.  MASR is here for your support, advice and safety net for our dogs for the remainder of their lives.  www.MidwestAustralianShepherdRescue.org ##2130336##

Story
Rowdy is being fostered in West Plains, Missouri. Hello potential adopters! Here’s a question for you. Are you ready to adopt your next forever companion, but you don’t want the commitment of raising a puppy.. like all the potty training in winter... or is an adolescent dog too much for you right now?  Then check out our boy Rowdy! Rowdy is a 6-year-old, 46 lb, standard red merlemale with a bobtail. Please don’t be put off by his age! Think of him in terms of a fine wine, or cheese, or steak; all things that are better once they've had time to age!  Rowdy is just like this.  He has aged to perfection. If Rowdy could talk, we would love to hear his story. What we do know is he was living in his loving home, but his owner passed away unexpectedly a short time after they got him. Rowdy can be a little shy when meeting new people but warms up quickly. Once he gets to know you, he will become your Velcro shadow. He wants to be a lapdog and is always ready to cuddle and snuggle! He can be energetic but has a good off switch and is happy to just hang out and relax with his humans. Rowdy lives with two other dogs (females) and does well with them. He enjoys zoomies around the yard, playing with toys, and interactions with his humans. Have another dog, great!  If not, Rowdy would probably enjoy playdates with other dogs instead. Rowdy would love to have a fenced yard so he could have a space to play; especially with you!  Rowdy has one of the goofiest and funniest personalities that has began to shine once e became comfortable in his foster home.  Rowdy is house trained, potty trained, and crate trained. He knows some basic commands and learns quickly. He is food motivated, which is great for training and is eager and willing to learn new things. We do not know how he is with cats. Because of his initial shyness to meeting new people, he would probably do better with adults or older children. Rowdy is looking for a caring and compassionate home that will continue to build his confidence and understand that he is a bit shy when meeting new people! Is that you? He would love someone who enjoys walks, hanging out, challenging him mentally, training, and playing with him. Rowdy’s got lots of love to give and is waiting for his forever home!  If you would love to give this handsome boy a home or just meet him in person and see all that he has to offer, click on Adopt and fill out the application. We would love to hear from you and will be in touch. Rowdy is neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on all vaccinations, heartworm negative and receiving monthly preventatives for fleas, ticks and heartworms.  Proof of heartworms for any prior or current pets is required to adopt from our rescue. NOTE:  All of our dogs live in foster homes with volunteers so we need an approved application on file to set up a meet with a dog you might have an interest in.  Please visit our website for more information on our adoption process, our adoption fees and a link to our adoption application.  We pride ourselves on matches that work for both the dog and your family.  MASR is here for your support, advice and safety net for our dogs for the remainder of their lives.  www.MidwestAustralianShepherdRescue.org ##2171496##
