Bobbi Bichon Frise Newton, IA

ADOPTED JAN-22-2024: Yay! I found my new home!

PUPDATE JAN-10-2024: Hiya! I'm still waiting for you to submit an application to adopt me. In the meantime, my foster mom took some new pics of me. Yep, as you can see, I'm still a little bashful when she wants to take pics.

PUPDATE DEC-05-2023: Hi, I’m Bobbi! Yes it’s a funny name but they call me Bobbi because I was born with a bobbed tail or no tail! I’m 3 years old and I weigh about 9 lbs. I’m a very shy little girl because I came from a breeder and I am in a foster home to learn how to be a real dog! I’m not quite ready to be adopted yet because I still need to see the dogtor.


Thank you for your inquiry. Once we get a completed application from you, we will get back with you as soon as we can. Please be patient because we all have jobs, families, and other obligations. You can find the application on our website at www.fluffybutts.com. We look forward to talking with you.

ADOPTIONS: We don't let the fact that you might live out of state stop any adoption that's meant to be, but you MUST be willing to drive, or fly, all the way to pick up your new family member. We do not ship these kids on airplanes by themselves - we think they'd have a hard time getting through security without their rabies tag setting off the metal detectors. If the kid needs a health certificate because they're flying home, that will be an expense for the new family.

ADOPTION DONATIONS: When you see the adoption donation amounts, we'd like you to know that 90% of the time the donation amount doesn't even come close to covering that kid's dogtor bills. This is definitely not a money-making venture. We're usually so far in the hole but the impawtant thing is to get these kids the medical care they need and help them find the pawfect family. That's our top pawority. (I just can't resist using "paw" whenever I can!)

POTTY TRAINING: Please note that we NEVER say our kids are 100% potty-trained. How stupid would we be to say something like that? If you're willing to be trained by your new family member, please fill out an application. If you're looking for a totally potty-trained kid, you may as well stop at the toy store on your way home from work and buy a stuffed toy because those are the only reliable ones to NOT potty in your home. There is a period of adjustment, not just for the new family member but for everyone in the house. You must be patient, understanding, and willing to work with your new family member. It can take anywhere from several days to several months. You must be 100% committed to this, it's a lifetime commitment.

HUG AND KISS YOUR KIDLETS LIKE THERE'S NO TOMORROW.

Please be patient with us - we're taking care of a lot of kids - our own and the foster kids - and we have families, homes and full time jobs. We're giving meds to the sick kids, playing with the healthy kids, and loving on all the kids. We're doing their laundry, trying to teach them manners and where to do their business, and cleaning up their accidents. In other words, we're just a little busy but we'll on application inquiries just as fast as we pawssibly can. Thanks!
