Ours are: Cascio - 14 yo Maltese; Maggie - Golden Retriever; Darcy - pound puppy; Max - Shih Tzu mix; Paris, Gracie, Jewely, Jay Jay, Vikki - our 5 Bichons.

We are the retirement home for 4 former show Bichons. All the rest are a rescue of one sort or another.

We have a poochon, part poodle and part bichon that we rescued. He is so sweet. Great mix.

I will never have another Jack Russell! Ours was rescued as a tiny puppy and has lived all 10 years with us BUT he is the smartest, most hard headed alpha animal I have ever known. We love him but will not go thru this again! He actually is on what I refer to as "doggie ritalin" so he can slow down a little and enjoy life :)
Our beagle and the 2 bostons we had were awesome compared to this little hellion. We've had labs, collies and shephards also.

Dene - Oh my, it must be a quite a sight when you mention a "treat" with 9 fur babies at your heels. However, they are probably better trained then ours. Did your Bichons ever get so they accept any attempts at grooming? Mention "bath" around here and they all disappear. Such fun.

We have a Kuvasz. (Google the breed to see photos)

Usually, they are Livestock Guard Dogs. We adopt Second Hand Dogs. All have been great dogs-they become inside dogs and sleep on the couch!

I am owned by 3 cats, all resuces and mixes. I also am owned by a German Shepherd, Maya, and a boxer, Buddy, both also are rescues. Yes they all own me and they know that I know it. My babies are spolied. We let our Siberian go to the Rainbow Bridge last May. Miss him still even though he was one stubborn but extremely intelligent dog. Would love to have another one but do not miss the hair. He had blue eyes and was spoiled also. we generally resuce the animals - they seem to find us. A neighbor says we emit a signal that only rescue animals can sense/hear.

Our current BT is our second one. Our first one, Girlie, had to be put to sleep in 1998. Lady, our second and current BT is 11 years old but still acts like a puppy!

This video was taken Saturday when I needed to give her a bath. She hates baths so she thought if she ignored me, I'd go away. LOL

Sorry the video is on it's side. :(
