Story
Luna is an 11 month old mixed breed, not entirely sure the type. She is high energy, and likes to run in her big yard now. She is house trained, but did have a bad spay, requiring doses of medication (proin) that keeps her bladder from leaking. It works perfectly! We have changed our schedules at home, unexpectedly, and while we love Luna, we simply do not have the time to give her to get her energy out. She is fine with other dogs, we have a 90lb lab mix that she keeps up with as well. Luna weighs around 50lbs. She does very well in boarding kennels as well. Please let us know if you are interested in becoming Luna's forever home!

Story
I adopted Nola from the Humane Society in 2012. She was just over a year at the time. She got along great with the two cats and my son at the time. She is extremely friendly and loves to be around people. She really enjoys being in the woods. Nola has some hearing and eyesight loss. This has caused her demeanor to change around young children. I have two toddlers in the house and they scare Nola when they come up behind her. As much as I don't want one of my children to get bit, it is not fair to Nola to be in scared in her own home. She is gentle around adults and is a great companion.

Story
Bailey is a lover, cuddler and full of energy. Need a family who has time to spend with him and go for walks. He's aggressive around other large dogs but gets along with smaller ones. Recent life events prevented me from having the time for him and giving him better care. I'm relocating soon and can't take him with me. It breaks my heart but I need to think of his needs.

Story
Scroll down to learn more about this pet: ***Meet the dogs at our facility during open viewing hours, or by appointment, at 828 Perkins Dr, Mukwonago, WI.   Bichon and Little Buddies is open weekly on Thursdays  from 2-6:30 pm expect for holidays and by appointment with a completed application.   Dogs in foster homes require an appointment and approved application to meet.  The application is online at http://www.bichonrescues.com/pre-adoption-form-dog  If a dog is listed as available, then we are still taking applications - no need to email or call to ask about the status.  Note: The forms that Petfinder or Adopt-a-pet has to inquire about the dog is not our application application.  Our form must be filled out to be approved to adopt a pet.*** Covid-19 Precautions: Until further notice, Bichon & Little Buddies will be doing all meets and adoptions by appointment only.  To be able to control the number of people at the shelter at one time, we will be suspending our open hours on Thursdays.  If interested in adopting, please fill out the pre-adoption application and we will set up a time for you to come meet the dogs you are interested in. About this Dog: Name: Jardin Breed: Mixed - possibly Lab/Hound mix Approximate Age:   4 yrs Gender:  Female Weight:  around 45 lb Adoption Fee:  $400 Why in Rescue:  Transfer from Texas General Profile:  Please fill out the adoption application at http://www.bichonrescues.com/pre-adoption-form-dog if you are interested in meeting one of our dogs.  Jardin came to us all the way from Texas with her 4 puppies.  Her puppies have been adopted (they were the famous Toilet Paper puppies) and now she is ready to find a home.  She is one of our favorite dogs at the shelter (shhh, don't tell the others) but we would love for her to have her own family.  She should be good with older children and seems like she would be good with other dogs.  She may be housetrained or at least have a good start at it if you kennel train.  She doesn't want to potty in her kennel run.  Get your application in and maybe Jardin can be brightening up your day. 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.  If you are interested in any of our dogs, please fill out the pre-adoption application and we will set up a time for you to come and meet them.   Adoption Procedures: 1.  Completely fill out the pre-adoption application at http://www.bichonrescues.com/pre-adoption-form-dog.  We will be checking with your vet if you have had pets, calling your landlord (if any) and checking a personal reference, before we contact you about visiting the adoptables.  Any missing information may have us moving onto another application. 2.  If you application is approved, we will contact you to come meet the adoptables that you are interested in.   3.  If it is a match, you will complete the adoption contract and pay the adoption fee.  Please be prepared to take your adopted pet home when you come meet him/her.  In most cases, you will be able to take the pet home the same day.  If all the vetting hasn't been done yet, we will hold the pet for you until the vet work is completed.  4.  If you have filled out an application and we haven't contacted you within a week, we may have missed your application, the pet may have been adopted by another applicant, or you may have been missing information on your application.  You may contact us to find out the status of your application at this time.  Please give us a week to process your application before contacting us!   The adoption fee through Bichon and Little Buddies Rescue is $200 - $475 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 and started on preventative, microchipped, and dewormed.  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 will also receive an 8 week age appropriate obedience training course at For Pet's Sake Dog Training for $50 (up to $200 value).  You may opt to take Puppy Kindergarten, Adult Beginners, Small Dogs Big Hearts, or Shy & Reactive Dog Class.  You must start the class within 90 days of adoption for the reduced fee.  For more information on the classes visit www.forpetssake.cc All dogs are seen BY APPOINTMENT ONLY.  Many are in various foster homes getting extra one on one attention getting them ready for their new homes.  The first step in adoption is filling out the pre-adoption application.  Bichon and Little Buddies is run by volunteers who have full time jobs in addition to the hours they spend with the rescue dogs.  Having an application on file assures us that the potential adopter is really interested in adopting a dog.  It also assists us in placing dogs in homes where both the dog and new owners are happy.  The application puts you under no obligation to adopt a dog from Bichon and Little Buddies. The Dog Pre-Adoption Application can be found at http://www.bichonrescues.com/pre-adoption-form-dog Thanks for thinking about adopting your new pet!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 $50 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.*** ***Other than during open hours, we do not show dogs/cats 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
