There’s a noticeable love for life in the Bichon Frise breed. But even the most adorable dogs fall victim to simple neglect, and may end up abandoned. For this reason many Bichon Frise rescue groups exist, to provide those dogs a home, even a temporary one. There are times when the owner has to move, so no one can take care of the dog; sometimes a cut in finances means the owner can’t provide for the dog like before. If you’re planning to bring a Bichon Frise into hour life, you are encouraged to consider adopting one from a Bichon rescue instead of buying one from a dog breeder.
Bringing home a rescued dog has its benefits. Here are some of them.
In theory it’s nice to get a puppy, but in practice you might not have the experience or the patience to potty train a puppy
Many pet lovers are wooed by what little time they’ve spent with a Bichon Frise. Maybe they saw one in a dog show, in a park, or played with a friend’s Bichon. What’s not highlighted in these moments is the training and grooming needs of a Bichon – the owner shoulders the responsibility of keeping that dog clean, healthy, and potty trained. One needs to be prepared to spend good money on that dog’s needs – premium dog food, potty pads, scheduled trips to the grooming salon, vet check ups, vaccinations, deworming sessions, good grooming tools, and you need to house train that dog, too. Is your home situation prepared for that? That means family members. Will your work duties allow that much time at home?
Adult dogs up for adoption, from a reputable rescue, will started need vaccinations deworming sessions – you need only be informed about them and to continue them. That means you get to enjoy the company of a dog you didn’t have to potty train and never have tons of cleaning up to do at home because of that. It also means you will not have gone through the dog’s teething stage, where it can and will explore your house hold items with its teeth.
Helping out to provide your home to an abandoned dog is actually service enough
You are essentially helping both the dog and the rescue organization. You help the rescue continue to provide its services to other dogs that need a temporary and later, a good and hopefully permanent home. Through adoption, you essentially make room in the rescue’s limited facilities so they can take in more orphaned dogs. You will be asked to donate a small amount for a successful adoption. A rescue group needs to finance its operations and purchase needed medical supplies for the dogs, and your donation will be used for those needs.
No one’s saying you shouldn’t buy a Bichon Frise if you’ve found a legitimate breeder, and for a good price. Think it over seriously – can you make room in your home and your life to take care of a Bichon Frise puppy? Because if you can’t provide adequate care, that puppy may end up neglected and later given up for adoption.
If you love the Bichon Frise breed but are not prepared to shell out a hefty sum to buy one from a breeder, there’s another way to get that lovely dog into your life. You can apply for adoption at a Bichon Frise rescue. Unlike looking up legitimate breeders and then purchasing a dog from a breeder, the Bichon rescue will process your application and that will take some time.
