About Winter

Meet Winter! This charming 1-year-old Bichon mix weighs about 12 pounds and is full of affection. He’s currently working on gaining some weight with nutritious food and love. Winter adores giving kisses, so get ready for plenty of them! Though he’s still mastering house training, he’s making good progress using a pee pad. Recently neutered, Winter is also up to date on vaccinations, dewormed, heartworm tested, and microchipped. This little fellow can be timid, easily startled by loud noises or quick movements, so a securely fenced yard is essential. He can feel nervous around new faces, so a patient family is ideal. Winter enjoys the company of other dogs and plays happily. You'll find him doing a cute downward-dog stretch before bouncing around like a little sheep! Once he feels secure, Winter is a delightful snuggler, loves cuddling on the couch, curling up in bed, and being close to his humans. He needs a calm home with another friendly small dog and no young children to thrive. If you can provide the supportive environment he deserves, Winter will bloom into the joyful companion we know he can be. Winter is ready to find a loving home where he can continue to gain confidence and share his affectionate nature. Adoption fee is $500. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
