Just rescued our 3rd Bichon X

I don't know what it is about Bichon X's but I just brought home our 3rd rescue. His name is Gizmo (Bich-Poo) and his previous owners decided to ditch him. Grrrrr. Our gain though and we will be his forever family. He is asserting himself with the Bich/Shi we got about 14 months ago and our beloved Bich-Poo Jazz passed away of old age last fall. She was with us for about 10 years before she passed. All 3 of these were "throw aways". That just drives me crazy but we are happy to give them a forever family when we are able. Gizmo is around 6 and Chyse is about 5 according to the rescue people we got them from.

I just wanted to share our newest family member.

How wonderful! Our four legged daughter Shyla is a rescue too
These dogs are so appreciative, I seriously feel that they really know you love them cause they make the best pets/ new family members anyone can ask for.

I love dogs I really want to be a dog groomer eventually. Bichons are one of my favorite. I recently got a peek-a-poo who is the sweetest little dog ever hes spoiled rotten! Im always happy to hear when people rescue animals Im with you I dont know how someone can just ditch a dog like that when dogs show you so much love!

I will get pics asap but at the moment I am running from work to appointments to meetings to the field. LOL I am off to a meeting now and will take before and after pics of Giz. He looks pretty sad right now..long nails, super long fur, almost black staining around his eyes...he needs tlc pretty bad. He'll get it too. ;D

That's awesome! My dog was a rescue and my cat that I just loss to leukemia too. They were/are wonderful additions to my family. I am considering adding another soon myself. Breaks my heart what those poor innocent animals suffer. Yay for you for being Gizmo's hero/mama

So sweet! Yes, we want pics! All our pets are rescues!

Here is our new boy Gizmo. He was trying to have a peaceful moment on the couch. Chyse's nose is still slightly out of joint about our new addition because Gizmo doesn't want to run and play with him yet. ROFL! Needless to say, Chyse turns his back to me from time to time to remind me that he is not amused about this plan yet so he won't let me take his pic right now. The earliest I can get them in to the groomer is June 22 so I tried to cut some of the muzzle and face area so Giz could see a little. I am not very good at the grooming part.

I sure am sorry to hear about your loss Eva. It's hard when you finally get them feeling as loved and secure as they should and then they get sick hey? I hope the perfect new addition finds it's way to you. (((hugs)))

I am also glad to hear that there are more rescuers here. Sometimes neighbors try to make out like we are crazy to take on the responsibility. Jazzy was pretty expensive with her surgeries and vet bills but she was such a sweetie and we loved her dearly. She was worth every penny that we had to scrounge up to help her.

awe hes soooo cute!!! awesome thing to do

Oh, such a cutie!
Sorry about your loss eva. We still miss our Pug that we lost last summer to cancer.

aw so cute! I love the bichon x look.

We don't have room or time to be fair to a dog, but our two cats were both from the animal control and humane society... they're nuts, but loveable, so they fit right in with my kids
