Opening TH-cam and seeing this first nearly took me out! My gf’s 14 year old bichon Texas passed away 2 days ago. We had developed a fierce bond throughout the 6 years I knew him. He was just THE best dog and we miss him so so so much but we’re trying to focus on the good times. I always loved when he got back from the groomers and he’d have little teddy bear ears that flopped as he walked 🥺. She won’t be able to watch this one just yet but i think I will. RIP Texas ❤️
My condolences for your loss. We lost our 3/4 Beagle, 1/4 Fox Hound recently at the age of 20+.
It takes time for the pain to lessen, but Texas will always be in your heart in a good way.
I'm so sorry to hear about your sweet Texas. I know it hurts. 😢❤
RIP Texas, you have fulfilled your mission on Earth, that is, to bring joy to your humans.
I'm so sorry for your loss💔
So sorry. Bichons are the best. Maybe there’ll come a time when you can look back at the time shared and smile.
My cousin had a lovely little Bichon named “Whitney.” Admittedly, most of us called her “Witless” due to her not being the brightest of canines… but she had a wonderful temperament!
That's such an adorable nickname
People always think ours is a poodle and I'm like no, she'd be a lot smarter if she was
🤣🤣🤣
@@violetweiner6883 Ours is a cavalier mix and is very intelligent, but only when its to spite us. She just turned one a month ago.
Dog abuser.
You're so right about "Beezhons" not being lapdogs, which people always assume about them because of their appearance and diminutive size. The Maltese is a lapdog, the Bichon
is not! They have way too much energy and love to show off, they are very clownlike and extremely manipulative, but in a very endearing way. I had one for 16 delightful years, still miss her.
My bichon Hercules passed in September. He was the best boy for 16 years! And I agree, he literally didn't look "rough" or old until he last week of life where he got extremely sick out of nowhere and the vet said he most likely had a brain tumor. I'm super thankful that he never had a very prolonged sickness. We shared the same birthday and i got him when I was 9. This year will be my first birthday without him since then. It was nice to see a bichon here 🥲
My cat, also born on my birthday, passed in November of 20 due to urethral problems. The anniversary was the hardest thing to deal with since my dad died. Chewy still sent him a birthday card.
It sounds like he was a pampered, sweet boy, and you were very fortunate to have gotten each other.
@@devent10n i am sure you will miss your cat for a long time. So sad. Hope you and the commenter both get another...they sound like lucky animals!
I'm glad that this comment thread as been a safe space for us ❤❤ thank you all for your kind words 🙏🏼
I bet he loved you very muich!! a huge hug to you.
❤️ Your Hercules, his spirit, remains alive in your heart & memories ❤️Love is Love, & *Love is Eternal*❤️
Did I just send this video to my friend who owns a Bichon, hoping they’ll do this cut on her one day?
Yes. Yes I did.
good job
So funny. I like the more natural look but this is cute. We’re all diff and styled or natural still great dogs. ✌️🌎🐕🐩
😆
Her little pose at the end was so cute!
Wasn't it tho, that one is begging for a picture frame...
She looked glorious at the end
Short annotation from a vet tech here: yes, Bichon Frisé are generally really healthy, but: 1. As with any breed, you can get lucky or unlucky. Still make sure you get your dog from a responsible breeder.
2. Any small dog breed is very prone to develop heart problems as they age. Make sure you keep an eye out for decreases in stamina, coughing and hightened respiratory rates (below 30 breaths a minute while sleeping is normal). I personally have my vet perform a heart ultrasound once a year on my dog. Its non invasive, doesnt hurt the dog and its a better diagnostic tool than "just" listening to the heart.
All right, Know-It-All over and out
i will keep that in mind if i get an dog
I wouldn't say "Know it all." You offered additional information in a non hostile way. You didn't attack OP. Thank you for the info
who asked tho
@@BB-bw8tk nothing wrong with sharing information and learning new things
@B B just trying to keep people from making uninformed decisions. It would be wrong to believe that just because your dog is a certain breed they won't get sick. You still have to be responsible of where you buy your dog. And with the heart problems its important to know the early signs because the earlier you catch it and treat it the better
This just popped to my recommendations and I watched it in tears. My best friend, my little Bichon passed away a few months ago at 14 years old. I've never met a better dog. She adored me and my mom and was by our side every minute of the day. Never made a huge deal about herself. She was happy just being with us. I've never really had friends, but that dog was always ready go out on an adventure with me or just listened when I needed someone and I actually felt that she understood. She was very smart, loved people, was never sick, loved to be petted, but didn't like to be held and I also groomed her for her whole life, she didn't like it, but was compliant. I will never forget the unconditional love she gave us and we gave to her. I feel like she took a part of me with her when she left and I will always miss her ❤
Sweet puffball! We named ours Arlo, after Arlo Guthrie. He lived to the ripe old age of 19 before crossing the Rainbow Bridge. The snuggliest pupper ever!
You can get anything you want at Alice’s restaurant
jeez don’t tell my parents that, ours is still running around at 17.5 after the vet gave her 4 months to live when she was 14
He went to Asgard?
19 years!!! i’ve barely been alive for 19 years
My rescue bichon I named Dude, after the Big Lebowski.
Our Bichon is turning 18 next month. He never showed any sign of slowing down until he did his cruciate ligament 3 ish of years ago (while leaping inside from the garden I might add) and even after then. In the last year he's gotten a bit slower, a bit lumpier.. but he's still going strong :) Amazing little dude.
I’m pretty sure my Cockapoo has some Bichon in him. Old man is 16 years old according to the vet, and while he has some lipomas and warts caused by clogged oil glands, as well as bad teeth, he’s still happy-go-lucky when he isn’t being the couch potato he’s always been.
Cheers to many more good years to come!
Wow that’s amazing!
LOL I named my rescue bishon Dude, as in The Big Lebowski Dude.
That's how our family's bichon has been starting to show his age too! He was literally zooming around the house and tore his puppy ACL, but two years later, even though he's a little grumpier he still loves his long walks!
Hey I was planning on getting one , but I'm concerned about how much they bark , are they quieter than other small dogs or just as loud
I miss my Bichon so much. Everything you said about them is correct. At least that’s how wonderful my Bichon was. She passed at 16 years old. My best friend who I can’t wait to see when I get to heaven.
Bichon owner. Yes always happy. HAPPY. Makes everyone happy. Our family’s never been so happy. Bichon happiness is contagious
“I swear my bichon clients never die “ - there you go again with that humour, Vanessa! This has to be the least aggro I’ve seen for a pet groom EVER
Her floofy legs post groom are the cutest things ever!!
My mom had a Bichon when I was growning named Holly. She died about 4 months before her 20th birthday. She was an extremely loyal and sweet dog. Even in her old age she never, ever showed signs of being grumpy or aggressive. She loved my mom so much and I miss her a lot. One day I'll definitely be getting a Bichon of my own
As a Bichon-Frise lover, thank you for showcasing them. They are such a joyful, funny and easy-going breed. My dear one lived to be almost 17!
Our bichon Buddy lived 16 years & we still miss him every day. He was the sweetest clown and very vocal. My teenagers swore he could say “mom”… he was always trying to talk to us and join in. We have a shih-tzu and shih-poo now & we love them dearly but if I ever get another dog it will be a little male bichon. 💖
I grew up with our long legged bichon Nicky. the sweet girl lived for 18 years. She still shows up in my dreams, nearly 9 years later
The youngest to go in my families run 13, and he had a tumor. The rest of the 7 between four households (not all of the dogs were related, no or inbreeding to worry about) was 18 as well. Love this breed.
I'll never forget the oversized Bichon Frise I met during my grooming training. His name was Elliot and was, I kid you not, at least 25 lbs. We used to joke that he'd been struck by lightening and that was where his size originated. But, as you described, a very sweet, compliant dog. His owner was a staunch supporter of Canada's Liberal party, and her previous Bichon had been named Pierre. No idea if she ever acquired a Trudeau to finish the name.
Why bring politics into a video about dog grooming? It doesn't contribute to the video or discussion.
@@dawnchesbro4189 because of the names of the dogs lol
@@dawnchesbro4189 Pierre Elliot Trudeau was a Canadian Prime Minister from the Liberal Party, thus the previous Bichon was named "Pierre" and the one this person met was "Elliot". They were sorta joking about wondering if the owner ever finished the naming trilogy.
I learned that Bichons are like goldfish: they keep growing if you keep feeding them.
Since I lost my soulmate, a husky/Am Staff rescue, my heart has been hurting. Your videos bring happiness to my heart and smiles to my face. Keep up the wonderful work you do! BIG HUGS from Florida, USA.
What a good girl! No drama,no screaming,no biting❤️
This might be the most satisfying groom I've seen yet! Great job!
This cut was a work of art 🖼
Bischons were some of my favorite dogs when I was a dog trainer. They are very smart and eager to please, love being with people, are usually friendly to strangers and other dogs, and get along well with children and cats (depending on the cat). They should live indoors with their family, they should not be kept outside. They don’t do well if left alone for hours at a time either. They can get enough exercise just from daily walks and playtime in the yard so they are really good for elderly people with grandchildren or disabled people. Two other bischon-type dogs are also similar in temperament and lifespan, the Havanese, and the Coton de Tulear. These two dogs also come in colors besides white so there are color options. Both are from tropical places (Cuba and Madagascar respectively) so they must be protected from cold even if they have a long coat. Over all this group of dogs are great family pets for people of all levels of ability.
We have a Coton from a puppy mill rescue who’s going to be 14 in August. He’s one of the best things that’s ever happened in our family ❤️
Our families first dog was a havanese, Couton mix. She is almost 16 now, and is the sweetest dog we could have ever gotten. She's developing some quirks as she ages now but I could have not wished for a better dog in my childhood😍
I have a havanese and Bichon Mix! It's literally the best of both worlds lol.
@@As-yi9r where did you find this mix?
My first dog, Buddy, was a Bichon and lived to be 18 years old. He was practically a wizard at that age. He has minimal health issues until that last year and was such an amazing boy. ♥️
Fantastic dogs!
Interesting breed the Bichon Frise, one I was not familiar with. As always you entertain and educate in style. Thank You for some great videos.
My baby that passed away last year was a bishon frise. He was 12 years and 8 months when he passed on
@@Evanescence1231001 I am very sorry for your loss. Gone but never forgotten. 13 years is a nice life with your best friend, I am sure you cherish every moment.
I ❤️ my Bichon
I did a report on them in grade school and I thought the name was very funny, as a young child knowing some naughty words would lol
@@Evanescence1231001 💔🥺smh I no how hard this is, I'm sorry for ur loss n hope ur heartache heals sooner as opposed to later. Good luck n take care
our bichon is 17.5 years old and she still acts like she’s a puppy. she is the absolute sweetest dog and i like to pretend she’ll live forever!! hands down best family dog
We just lost our Bichon a few weeks ago and I was drawn to your video. We have had two Bichons - one lived to nearly 16 yrs old and the other was a few months past 18 yrs old. They are the best little companions. More like children than dogs.
This video is so heart warming. My dog mater (Bichon) 17 years old. And had a few left in him. He unfortunately got out of the yard and was hit by a car had some internal bleeding but still kickin. had to do the humane thing. He was my best friend in the whole world and was inseparable from his ball.
This cut is much more appealing than the regular Bichon one I've seen...balanced and visually pleasing. This should be the standard! You do amazing work 😊
It also makes it look like a stuffed toy lol.
@@peggedyourdad9560 definitely a much cuter look 😊
What a well behaved pup. Awesome transformation.
Vanessa, you did a fabulous job! That high-set ears cut is absolutely adorable, and perfectly suited to a bichon frisé.
I know - the dog looks like a ball of cotton wool! I meet so many of these dogs here in my home town. They are all curious, hungry for love, and playful. And they always make me smile 😊
Where I work, we have a pet of the month and one of our new hires brought in her bichon. What a friendly little guy! He spent quite a while just sitting on my lap and giving me kisses.
I bet the owner loved this cut!
Our Rescue Bichon Frise (Angel) was an overbred 6 yr old with health issues from an Amish Puppy Mill. *Sweetest Girl* 💖 Never saw grass or sky from cage in barn. Was afraid of dark & other dogs & men. Her tail-tip was cut off by power washer💔Well, she got very accustomed to being very pampered. She lived her last 8 years of life healthy & very happy 🌈❤️
Mine came from an Amish puppy mill too luckily we got him when he was young just under a year I think but is also afraid of other dogs and men I wonder why that is
My childhood dog was a Bichon named Daisy. We could only get that type of breed bc my brother didn’t get allergic reactions from her. My family got so lucky the day we decided to look at the spca and found her sticking her nose through the bars. She was found wandering in the sticks so we had no clue of her origins. She was estimated to only have been about 6mo. I was so excited to have my first dog and studied how to groom and train her. She would just lay in my lap as I trimmed her and was so patient with all of the grooming process. She was scary smart too! She was both food and praise motivated so training was easy. She’d learn things in a day. My favorite tricks were play dead, where she’d lay still except for her tail, and yawn, which she’d make cute noises.
My cousin had a Bichon named Bijou. He was a male and he was 6 years old. one day when my aunt took him for a walk he got hit by a car and died right when my cousins other dog Masha had puppies in her stomach.
We miss him very much.
Now i have a little Bichon named Milo that looks exactly like him. He always reminds me of him.
Miss you so so so so so so so much and RIP Bijou. I still love you you little cutiepaws.
My parents' third child ( basset hound was the first and I was the second) was a Bichon (Ruffles). When he passed away at 15 I was devastated, he was my buddy and brother. He was a great little dog would let me dress him up in tutus and bathing suits. Love that dog!!
Love the balloon animal cut! Love Bichons!
We found an apricot Bichon Poodle mix wandering the street in 2008. She was fully grown, very well trained and extremely shy. I tried for 2 years to find her owner and never could, so we've had her ever since. She is the sweetest dog and thinks she's a cat. She must be at least 17 by now.
My Bichon passed away at 18 a few years ago to undiagnosed spleen cancer 😢His groomer, who he had for all 18 years, loved him and he loved her ❤ I will always suggest a Bichon and I can't wait to get my next one. They are truly the best. The fur to keep fluffy like that is high maintenance. We took him in every 3 weeks because he hated us brushing him. I know he's playing around in doggy heaven and I always leave a spot under my Christmas tree for him on his favourite blanket that I've always used as a stand cover. It was his favourite sleeping spot. 🌈🐶
I got my hybrid Cavachon (Cavalier King Charles Spaniel/Bichon Frise) 16 years ago from an originator of the breed cross in Grundy Center, Iowa. He does not shed and I love his hair. He still has a puppy face although he does take more naps. Happily he still has zoomies 3 times a week around dinner time and he has always gotten on wonderfully with my cats and other dogs. He is very relaxed at the dog park and nothing much bothers him. I am so grateful for my white and caramel-colored boy.
I just looked up pictures of that dog breed, my god, they look so cute!
I also have a Cavachon...that's him in my profile pic. He adores our 4 cats...the youngest cat is HIS kitten!
I've been told my dog is part cavachon but not sure as he is a rescue from an Amish puppy mill cam loves to do his zoomies especially after dinner time and when it's raining lol
When I worked as a vet tech, most of the Bichons we saw had allergies and skin issues. Lick granulomas (open sores where doges lick because they are itchy, like if a person were to scratch themselves raw) were very common. I would certainly say if someone were to decide on a Bichon, watch for allergies and and skin issues. And also, since they have ears that lay down, it is VERY important to clean those ears at least once a week or they have a tendency to get ear infections.
Yes skin issues everywhere. If you have a white dog with some pink/red staining on its fur, it's probably dermatitis or allergies. Not to mention diabetes! It's the trade-off I suppose for such a long-lived pet
True, my baby girl use to scratch raw until we figure aut she to was allergic to corn, after that she was an angel
Still, as far as dog breeds go, that seems very healthy to me? Usually when I hear about dog breeds they seem to be prone to things like joint pain, heart problems, breathing problems etc. Allergies and eczema are "normal" problems that plenty of humans also have and it seems much more manageable than "chronic struggle to breath" etc. Even the lifespan is almost as good as an average cat.
@@helenanilsson5666 Well, yes, however, every breed has its plus and minuses, including mixes, "mutts" and "designer breeds". It really all comes down to what someone is personally willing to deal with. As long as one does their research before adopting and is willing to take on the responsibility that comes with being a pet parent. I have a deep love for collies (rough coat), and am fully aware of all their issues, however, whenever I adopt a family member I always research the breeder, the genetic lines of the mother and father of the litter, etc. to hopefully give incentive to better breeding practices and healthier puppies/dogs.
@@DragynGirl good point, and admittedly I'm not a dog person so the information I have on dogs is mostly the most basic information, which likely include an obligatory mention of problems just to warn off potential impulse purchases by people who aren't ready to put in the work.
Oh my gosh, what a well-behaved dog!!! And that haircut? ADORABLE!!! I’m a cat person, but if I ever got a dog, I’d want one just like Gracie 🥰
Agreed ^^
You must be me. I'm a cat person through and through but I've wanted a bichon for the longest. Also it would be an ideal match because he'd be the exact same size as my two cats and could hold his own against their feisty butts 😆
I lost my little girl at 16 about a year back, a Bichon-poodle mix. She was the sweetest little dog in the world, had a lot of anxiety and definitely didn't do this well at the groomer, but everyone who ever met her just loved her, and the feeling was mutual with her. She looked a lot like this dog's "before" look. I've missed her every day, but it never fails to make me happy every time I see a dog that looks like her!
We had Annie for 16 years. Best dog I ever had. Best dog for our family ever.
One of my family dogs growing up was a Bichon Frise, and he was the best dog we could have ever hoped for. His name was Marshmellow and lived to 14 years young. Whenever he came back from the groomers, he when from a toasted marshmellow to a pristine white one. Such a sweet boy; rest in peace.
Look how fluffy she is!! She's so Adorable!
She's like a walking marshmallow
@@GracemarieJohnson2763 yeah
My grandma babysits dogs and there was this bichon frise named Happy. He was such a great dog. He was so nice and obedient. He passed away a couple years ago. I miss him
my bichon has been with me literally my entire life. turning 29 soon and he's still chugging along with me.
Wow 29 years
i have some bad news for you... google says that the oldest bichon frise on record is only 21 years old 😬
@@EsrohFilly thats because i dont publicize my private life for clout
Wow 29 years old like your whole life or like as far back as you can remember
@@leighleigh747 i'm 26, he's older than me lol
omg i didnt know you also groomed cotton balls! (LOVE the haircut btw, she looks like she's got space buns ahhhh 😍)
1.49 million smiles of joy. Thank you Vanessa and cameraman🙏🏼🙏🏼
My bichon passed last month, he was only seven. I miss Rudy so much this video just reminded me of all the great memories he gave me
my grandmother had a bichon and let me tell you she was feisty! she was a firecracker in her younger years and in her older years she made her boundaries abundantly clear. seeing you groom gracie made me nostalgic, thanks for your videos
SO FLUFFY!
I love the gracious Gracie! I also love the addition of a transcript. I assume it's automatic, unless you really did spray her down in Spring Metals cologne.
That is a very attractive haircut. Bet the owners were pleased.
I grew up with a bichon frisee mix. He was a miracle dog sent by God. Wonderful personality. He never hurt another animal besides insects.
Personally owning and breeding bichons, they’re my favourite breed. I breed them to work as service dogs, and those who aren’t suited for the service life becomes devoted house pets. My own ‘main’ dog, who’s now 13, is my personal service dog for my autism. They’re great. Semi easy for first time owners (although they require a lot of fur care)
I think I'd get worried that such a small service dog might accidentally get stepped on or something out in public, but from what I've seen it seems like their general breed temperament would be perfect for doing that kind of job
I'm considering getting an emotional support animal for my own autism (yes I understand the differences between a service animal and an emotional support animal) but the problem is that the best pet for me would be a snake and bringing snakes in public is dangerous for their safety because people suck
I love my Bichon Yorkie mix, but he's very codependent on my mom. She's his emotional support person lol
@@madeliner1682 There are many kinds of service dogs, such as seizure detecting or blood sugar monitoring, and small dogs can be perfect for those, especially for disabled people who physically can't deal with larger dogs.
@@madeliner1682 well I usually have her in a bag in public, because her main function is distraction. I get overwhelmed in larger crowds and she ‘boops’ her nose into my arm to tell me “hey, you’re beginning to get stressed so pay attention to me and not the other people around you”
Mostly we train them for that or other mental disabilities like depression, anxiety or panic disorder
They’re hardy dogs who lives to serve humans in general, sometimes they’re stubborn and don’t wanna work, but they make excellent pets if they flunk training.
@@Tazzie1312 that’s true. We trained one a while back to help with seizures which, coincidentally, was my, now, boyfriend’s mother. Back then I didn’t know them. We trained her to alert my mother-in-law’s personal helper, since my mother-in-law is permanently wheelchair bound from ALS. When out in town she sits on my mother-in-law’s legs and has her own cute little vest on that makes sure people know she’s a service dog (I have one too for mine, she dislikes wearing it though 😂)
My bichon frise/toy poodle mix passed away last year at the age of 18. Like you said, it took a very long time for her old age to show. The last year and a half she started appearing very old, but up to that point she was spunky and a cheery fluffy girl.
RIP Charlie. You really did happily go on all our adventures with us. Bichon’s all look so similar it is heart stopping to see one and be reminded of our beloved doggy in heaven.
Was never a small dog fan until I met Sadie the Bichon. She was a wonderful pup who I believed lived until 17. She belonged to a friend of mine and will always be one of my favorite dogs.
The salon my grooming school was in catered to Bichon Frise, and learned scissoring skills on them. I fell in love with the breed. When school was over, I had two part time jobs, one was in a store that sold puppies. There was a 7 month old Bichon puppy that no one wanted, so I took him, working to pay the fee. At 13 months of age I entered him in a local dog show, and he won best of breed!!! I then had one full time job, in a very wealthy part of town (Las Vegas) and had quite a few customers with Bichons, so I used him for stud, while still showing him. Over the next few years he sired five litters, with four different mamas, and had a total of 27 puppies. I kept one of his puppies. They both lived until they were 16. They were two of the best dogs I ever had, and I will definitely.look into rescuing one when I look for my next dog. You did a great job grooming Gracie, but I would have loved to see her big round head, it’s just my preference. I love when a customer tells me “do whatever haircut you want”. It gives us the opportunity to highlight our skills.
Love the clip you always do (when it's not winter) at the end of the pet running in your back yard. Very cute to see the pet having fun outside post-groom.
My dad had a poodle/bichon mix and he was the sweetest, most neurotic dog. My dad was hearing impaired, so Dusty was the perfect companion for him, since his bark could shatter glass :3.
My aunty had a bichon who was the sweetest thing ever. Maddie was part of the family - more my cousin than a lot of my actual cousins. She was smart and funny, hated being picked up, and she was always happy. It was impossible not to love her. I have a lot of great memories.
My Mom and Dad had Bichon. He was a pampered pouch. He sat beside my Dad at mealtime on his own chair. Of course, my Dad would feed him tidbits. Dad would take him to his shop to groom him. It was a very sad when he passed.
I liked the cut that you gave this bichon❤️❤️
Wow what a great difference! You did a great job. I like how you explain the different breeds and their personalities.
don't you mean Breeds not Breads hahah. Sounds like your talking to a Baker. Also didn't know breads had a personality hahah. I agree though.
@@randydelaney7053lol
We have a 15 year old bichón frisé and we thought he was a poodle for almost all his life 😅 he is the sweetest thing, extremely healthy and playful. Also, our birthday is on the same day.
We had a bichon as my first dog, Snoopy 💓 he was the love of my life and my greatest companion. He had such a spunky personality and loved you hard but on his terms. So resilient, charming, handsome, and intelligent. Love these dogs so much!
Omg the balloon animal cut makes her look like the puppy from tin tin cartoon! Love your channel so much! You rock! Xx
My first dog was a bichon. He was such a sweetheart, he lived until he was 17 years old! He absolutely used to change color after the groomers😌 Love you Cruizer🥰
I currently have a German Shepherd, a Maltese, 3 Havanese, and my Darby, my 14.5 year old Bichon. While they are all wonderful, all rescues, my Darby is the absolute sweetest, most affectionate dog I have. I have always had dogs, have fostered and rescued many, and I have always maintained that as wonderful as they all are you still have to be aware, if not cautious, because they are animals. That goes right out the door with Darby. I tell everyone, I absolutely guarantee that dog will never bite. When she was a puppy my granddaughter, who was then a baby grabbed her and bit her, coming up with a mouth full of white fur. Darby, clearly in pain, yelped and scooted off the bed. I thought then if that Darby was clearly a super girl. Plus through all the years I have fostered, and had sometimes up to 20 dogs in my house ( for short periods), she has always been gentle but firm with them. Now Maddie, my mad Maltese, totally different story…..
Well done for helping all those dogs. 👍 I'm Bichon crazy my last one was a rescue & my surname is Darbey 😂. Sadly in Ireland available Bichons for rescue are extremely rare & I'm allergic to dogs except Bichons. I empathize with the Maltese situation I've met a few who have tried (but failed) to take chunks out of my Bichon Bonny!!! 😂
Wow I love the cut on this one! I’ve never seen a groomer do the “high ear” cut before and it’s adorable!!!
My parents show their Bichon Frise, and this video is so accurate! Hazel is a crazy, spunky girl with so much personality and attitude. People think they are froo froo and dainty, and while some are, there are definitely those that aren't. My mom has been in love with the breed ever since we got our first one when I was little. They are poofy little balls of energy and personality. Always great pets
Did she win any?
@@rogue7723 She has! She is already a champion and on her way to becoming a grand champion. Just this weekend, she won best in breed at the dog show my parents took her to. I don't remember the name of the show though
My childhood dog was a Bichon, but he was freakishly large - about 18 inches tall. Despite that, he lived a very happy 15 years, and passed away in 2021. He was the goodest boy in the world, and I miss him every day. He loved absolutely everyone he met immediately, and blitzed every night for 30 minutes of hard tug-of-war and fetch. He was super docile and had an amazing temperament. He absolutely loved babies, and he would let them tug on his hair and maul him as much as they wanted without complaint. Nothing will ever be able to replace him. I love you, Chewie.
Oh my goodness! What a beautiful cotton ball. 😍I love that hair cut.
Never knew dogs could be so affectionate. We love our 10 yr old and 2 yr. Old. Best little friends I've ever had.
I had a Bichon. They really are just such a nice cute dog.
My bichion lived until she was 18, so they are indeed hardy. She had bad allergies though and would scratch and chew herself all the time as she got older, it's something the breed is prone towards. They can be sassy and bossy if you let them be though, which is tempting due to their cuteness. But they are very loving and ideal companion dogs.
Gracie was less fidgety than me at the barbershop.
My parents got a Coton de Tulear after I started college. She was the sweetest, kindest dog I have ever met, and she will forever remain one of my best friends.
Rest in peace, little Chloe-dog :'(
I had one too! 💗 absolute sweetest.
Cotons are absolutely amazing dogs ❤️ I have an almost 10 year old coton de tulear girl that I spent half of my life with (I got her when I was 10 myself and I'm turning 20 this year). Totally can't imagine having to say goodbye one day... I'm sure your sweet Chloe had an amazing life full of love with you and your family, may she rest in peace 💞 May I ask how many years she lived?
@@dancingcorpses5750 I want to say 13 or so?
I’m absolutely obsessed with the ears! Your *respect* and love for the dogs is always apparent and I love it so much.
Wow nearly 1.5 million subscribers now 👏👏👏 I subscribed at about 20,000 subs and have watched at least close to or all of her videos. She is the only TH-camr that I follow this closely. She also is about an hour drive away from me which is so cool!!
I adopted a 9 year old Bichon Frise 10 days ago and he is the sweetest, most loving, adorable dog you could ever wish for.
Bichon Frise
“Pink or blue?” Well now I hafta know what his favorite color is XD
Well, mine is not the smartest one. But I don’t mind and she is the sweetest dog. She showers everyone with love.
This needs to stop, I don't own any pet's but everytime I watch your channel I'm like I'll take that one. 😂 Gracie is adorable 🤗 when I move to a place that allows animal's I might just have too many. 😅
Gracie looks like a gorgeous cloud ☁️ So pretty 😍
My darling Bichon lived for 17 years. She was just the best. Will always miss her.
My first dog was a mostly-bichon. He died a few years ago, I think 2019? But we had had him since 2008, when we got him at the ripe old age of five. He was a little tank, and super cute. He had already lost most of his teeth when we got him, but he loved to eat popcorn and fresh peas from the garden. It took him a lot of work without teeth, but he always seemed happy to do it.
My family bichon passed away a little over a year ago and he was simply the best dog. So very sweet and calm. This video made my heart long for him but also filled me with love. Bichons are some of the best dogs ever, thanks for this sweet video. Rest In Peace Jasper ❤️
My aunt had one of these dogs that lived up to be 20. I grew up with her and loved her lord
Too bad she just passed away recently, at least she went out peacefully
My Bitchin Freeze was eleven when cancer took him from us. He was the kindest dog and the best babysitter I could’ve ever asked for.
She looks so happy at the end frolicking in your yard. She looks like a little cotton ball
Oh my god I had a “friend” in high school who also had a Bichon named Gracie. She was so freaking sweet. She was old and kinda fat but still I loved her. Only think about that “friend” I remember fondly
The clips of your clients running through your yard at the end of your videos is always my favorite. 💖
The sweet little dog looks like an ambulatory snowball.
My youngest brother has 2 dogs that are half bichon frise, half poodle (seen in my profile photo). They are very friendly, playful, and energetic! They gave me a little bit of trouble when I bathed them. But I love them, they are such great little companions.
Love her frolicking @ the end - beautiful, sweet, happy, & very well-mannered little angel,(just needs a 😇) 💖
My wonderful little Maggie, the love of my life and a lovely Bichon in every way possible, passed very suddenly when she was 15 years old. She had enjoyed a healthy and happy life and she was a joy every single day! We waited a few years and a few dogs and welcomed a new little Bichon into our lives a couple of years ago! Our other pups welcomed him in and they all adjusted very quickly! Dug is two years old now and a very happy addition to our pack! I just cannot imagine not having a Bichon in my life!
I will never not love your videos. You are so "matter-of-fact/news-room" professional in your timbre, but you never sound like a reporter who has no craps to give. You're always providing awesome info to help us better understand our faithful pet-bonding species. You're awesome for that.
I had a rescue bichon for 14 years named Lily, she just recently passed in January 2023. She had a lot of anxiety, so after the first 7 years of her going to the groomers it just got to be too much for her, and I started doing it at home. She was so good about it, up until the end when she was just tired of it and so it would take me a period of three days to groom her, one day for brushing, one and sometimes two days for sheering her body/face/paws and then a bath and nails. When we first brought her home she did have those brown tears but I remember looking it up and reading someone's comment on how they never gave their bichon sink water only filtered so that's what I did and she never had those brown stains again, also you have to pull the eye buggers of pretty often. I've been enjoying watching your videos these past few days, you're a wonderful human being.
