Hi Everyone,
My name is Gregarious Georgie and I’m a loving, cuddly and affectionate pup who is a bichon/maltese mix that is three years old and lots of fun! I have silky cream colored hair with apricot coloring around my eyes and mouth, expressive brown eyes and a perpetual smile.
My foster Mom says I’m adorable and a joy to have around. Grandma says I’m attentive, loyal and very sweet. She also says that I’m doing my absolute best to be your bestest friend in the world. I’m the perfect companion, as I am happy to hang out with you when you watch TV, work at your desk, talk on the phone, cook a meal, go for a walk or enjoy the backyard. I simply want to share your world and let you know how much I appreciate you!
Did I mention that I like other dogs --as well as little ones called kids and big ones called adults? Well, I do as I’m a happy dog who gets along with everyone. (Mom says to tell you I am a little shy at first with strangers but I warm up quickly!)
Grandma says I’m a sporty little dog too. I love to play tennis (no rackets please, just balls) and I often toss the tennis ball to my Mom to encourage her to play. I also love to run track. I race all around the yard after my doggy foster sibling. We have a great time together! And because I’m a good sport, I often let her win! I also like to train so I’m happy to run around by myself too.
I’m also housebroken (I go to the door to let you know it’s time to go out) and, like most other FurKids, I’m very social! I like to go on walks and rides (in the car, that is) love being touched and petted, enjoy receiving back rubs and tummy scratches and I smile all the time!!!
After playing and having fun, I’m happy to cuddle with you and give you kisses so you feel loved too. And while I’m crate trained, I also like to sleep quietly on my own bed all night long.
My Ideal Home:
*An active person who is also home a lot and likes to walk, go for rides and cuddle
*Another active, playful dog would be nice
*I can also be an ‘only’ pup if I get to do playdates with other pups
*Adults or a family would be perfect
Experience level:
*Have had dogs as an adult
*Recent/current dog experience a plus
Mom says I’m a little ball of sunshine who will light up your life – and that I’m a very special little guy who has been a delight to everyone to have in her home. So if you’re looking for a new little buddy to cuddle with, walk with, talk to, and hang out with, I’m applying for the job.
Please ask for me so we can meet.
Loves and licks,
Gorgeous, Gentle and Good-Natured Georgie

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.
