That's a fat that can raise some eyebrows, since this breed is actually categorized as a toy breed. Some toy dog breeds tend to become aggressive dogs that snap at most people, save for the owner. Before you purchase Bichon Frise puppies for sale, you may want to go through the "checklist" below.

Can you take care of puppies in your home?

Many people are enamored by the bounce in the Bichon's movements. That cute face and that mischievous look can only be so inviting. That dog wants to play. Just pause for a minute to consider: you may have been watching clips online showing adult Bichon. Those dogs have already been trained, and you're looking at the "finished product," so to speak: someone labored to raise them well.

If you're getting puppies, you will be the one to raise and train them. One puppy alone can be a handful to house train by yourself, if you bring home more than one, that's more load for you.

Breeder or rescue?

Just because you have loads of love means you, too, have loads of cash, so your option for a nearly-cashless acquisition would be through a dog rescue: that means you apply for adoption. The screening process is going to take time. Rescue groups simply want to be sure that you can take care of the rescued dogs they have in their care. The difference also lies in the money you have to shell out. For a successful adoption, rescues usually ask for a donation; and that amount helps fund their operations, from rescues to maintenance of facilities, and purchase of medicine and other vital items. Breeders will ask a hell of a lot more money for the purebreds, because those do cost a lot.

The wrap up

Despite how cute these pups are, some owners give up on them. There are various reasons, from the owner's having to relocate due to work, to the owner giving up on taking care of the pups. The bottom line is that the puppies end up being taken in to dog shelters or rescues, where they await adoption. The sad part is that is that those owners may have spent to acquire the puppies, only to get attached, but have to give them up.
