About Talvi

Meet Talvi, an adorable Bichon Frise navigating her new life outside of being a breeder dog. This gentle girl is learning the joys of being part of a family and grows braver every day. Although she can be shy at first, she’s already made strides in showing her sweet personality. If you're heading outside without her, expect a few barks calling for attention — she doesn’t want to be left behind. Talvi has a playful spirit, although she sometimes avoids being picked up, playing a little game of hide-and-seek. But once she feels secure, she relaxes and welcomes being scooped up, revealing her growing trust in those who care for her. She benefits greatly from having another small, friendly dog around for comfort and encouragement as she navigates her new world. Currently, she’s working on house training and is not yet leash trained, so a securely fenced yard is preferred to keep her safe. Talvi is friendly with other dogs and respectful around cats. She recently had dental work and has been groomed, but regular grooming will be essential to maintain her beautiful coat. Talvi is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccinations, including a recent dental procedure. This sweet girl is ready to leave her past behind and embrace the love of a patient family who can help her flourish. Giving her the time she needs will lead to a devoted companion.
