Just a few photos, scenes around the house.

The Ladies! Sugar on the sofa, Tasha and Lacey up on the sofa back

Oh how I WISH the flash had gone off, Tasha has the head tilt, lol

Lazy Sunday morning: Lacey and Willy

Closer look at a very tense Willy, ha haa

Just a few more to share coming up.

Love the ones on the back of the couch.

LOL, thank you, Monica. Bichons are very cat like in their behavior, and prefer to be UP off the floor most of the time.

awwww, hello there, fluffy-fluffs! I like the third one from the bottom where Tasha looks like she tells a secret to Lacey.

And Willy, you look nice and relaxed

**pomtzu** · 07-26-2010, 06:20 AM

Willy looks way to relaxed and settled in to his new residence, to even think about the possibility of living somewhere else.

Great pics Sandi. Not enough of my Marlin Darlin tho.

**Freedom** · 07-26-2010, 02:57 PM

Sorry about that, Ellie! Marlin Darlin' likes to hold the sofa down, he worries it will float away. Even when all the rest of us humans and pups are outside, he only stays a minute or 2 and then it is woof-WOOF, woof-WOOF, has to get back on that sofa!

We can see who the bosses of that house are. So funny. Is there any room left for you and Dad, Sandie?

I can't get over how the whole group is not relaxed at all and completely tense.

I see they don't like it there at all.

They are all so adorable. Thanks for the ID's. I can never tell them apart.

Great pictures.

I never knew that Bichons were so cat like. Are you sure that Willy is only a foster? He sure looks so relaxed in your home and seems to really fit in well.

**chocolatepuppy** · 07-26-2010, 10:33 PM

Just look at all of the adorable white fluffs! They all look very happy!

**Freedom** · 07-27-2010, 08:33 AM

Thanks, yes the bichons have such a great personality. I am so thankful that folks here on PT recommended the breed to me!

Willy can NOT stay. We have a city ordinance, max 3 dogs per house. I've been willing to take a risk for Tasha, as she did NOT deserve to be kicked out of the rescue (in my opinion!) and the rescue she was transferred to does not require mill dogs to be placed in a home with an already socialized pup living there. I haven't regretted taking her in for a minute!

But moving up to 5, well, I am SO nervous every time I take them out for a walk! A friend suggested I take them in groups of 2 and 3. But we walk for close to an hour! I don't have the time or energy, lol. And when I take them in the car to one of the parks, well, that is just more time involved. And if I get in toruble, I have to rehome TWO! Willy and ???? The only way to keep more than 3 is to install a kennel and get an annual kennel license (currently about $200 per year). Just not practical or feasible.

Willy is a terrific dog, he will make a great pet. I hope he gets adopted quickly; my nerves can't take this, lol. I have already considered asking that the rescue rehome him to another foster home. I hate to do that to him; the less bouncing around the better. First, I was just supposed to pick him up, get him in the program. Then, I was "just" going to take him to the vet. Now, we are at, "let's not change vets during his recovery." LOL I CAN find excuses to keep him here as a foster for a while!

They are all so cute. I look at them and see my Kirby. Especially the upside down Willie. That's how Kirby sleeps. It's so adorable.

**krazyaboutkatz** · 07-27-2010, 09:04 PM

Sandie, can he just be a permanent foster dog? It could take a long time to find him the right home so you never know. Good luck.

**K9karen** · 07-27-2010, 11:04 PM

I love that there are white fluffs everywhere you look! I tickled Willie's belly through the computer! Hope he felt it! Thanks as always, Sandie, for the terrific photos!
