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!
