Jr. Volunteers

Bichon FurKids is blessed with a number of volunteers who help our FurKids in many ways. One of the ways that our young dog-loving friends help is by making the soft fleece blankets that our new fur kids receive when they are rescued. Sometimes it is the first thing that they can truly call their own. They snuggle on them, nest on them, often take them wherever they go - and it also helps them when they transition to their Forever Homes.
 
If you want to join these fellow Junior Volunteers in helping us making blankets or fleece toys, just e-mail us at . We would be happy to have you on our team!

Our appreciation and gratitude goes out to the Brownie Troop in San Diego for taking the time to learn about the importance of rescuing and also for taking the time to make beautiful fleece blankets for our furkids to snuggle with!

Connor & Kellie Millard

Whittier, CA

Thanks to Connor and Kellie for volunteering their summer vacation time to take care of Bichon Furkids in foster care at the home of Jessica Ley in Anaheim.

In addition to the many furkids she fosters, Jessica also babysits for Kellie and Connor for the summer. Kellie and Connor feed, brush, walk, play, teach, help bathe and clean up after the furkids …  and even try to get people to adopt them! Connor is quite the salesman.  Sometimes the kids get scratched, nipped and growled at, yet nothing detours them from loving and caring for the dogs.  They were a tremendous help preparing Danny, Scooter and Pop Tart  to go their new homes. And there will be more before the summer is over! Jessica says that the giggles she hears when the dogs jump all over them and shower them with kisses is heartwarming. 

Thanks, Connor & Kellie! You have made a difference in the lives of several furkids!

Our deep appreciation goes to the moms, dads, and kids of the Pacific Rim and Rancho La Costa Chapters of Kids Korps and Brownie Troop 860 and Breanna, one of our bichon adopters, who get together and make blankets for our fur kids. We thank ALL of them more than words can say (but we think these photos say a lot!)

Over Thanksgiving vacation and the first part of December, Breanna gathered together some fleece and some friends and made almost twenty blankets for deserving fur kids. We want to thank her, and her wonderful mom, Shannon and her bichon, Comet (who personally put his paw of approval on each blanket.)

Breanna, we thank you for your generosity!
