I own a 4 year old Bishon Frise and they are quite the little characters. Tootsie will heave throw cushion all over the place; take her cushion she lays on in the front room and get under it and all you see is a cushion moving across the floor. She loves water and my husband and I take her to the doggie beach for swim often in the summer. If we allowed her too she would have a bath or showers with us too. My bichon is quite a cute mystery! I set a soft, squishy blanket on the sofa and my dog starts digging a making his bed and doing that! Joey and his bichon pals are like that.
