Wanted Bichon Frise.

[Aussiekev]

Can anyone tell me where we can buy a Bichon Frise Dog or Puppy in Thailand.

Google Bichon Frise puppies thailand, loads of hits, hope you find what you want.

It'd be easier and cheaper to just get her a cuddly toy, mind.

Might as well stay here with loads of dog people, throw this out and see where it bounces:

We're looking for a pup, would've gone for a boxer, had one in the UK and for me a great all rounder, but it's quite something to take on here in Thailand, not just for the weather and associated respiratory and mite problems but also from the general negative reports on vet practices and standards.

Would be nice to take on stuff a la Mendip, but reality kicks in with limits:

Must be a pup, I don't want somebody else's baggage, though tbf our abused/rescued JR turned out to be quite a character and well complemented the Dane; family dog, esp good with kids, medium (20", 40-50lbs), bit of intelligence at home would be handy, suited to Thai climate, happy with max 1-2 hours exercise though there's a bit of space to release steam locally; not interested in a pipe cleaner or toy, and not a fan of moult but that's something you learn to live with; next of course would be to find a trustworthy vet, since no amount of home care can undo the harm caused by those that have come to my attention.

Aside from those mentioned I have also had mini yorkies, alsatian and a couple of mixes, all memorable in their own ways with JR on a possible shortlist and the others not suited to local/domestic conditions.

Pedigree not critical, each has its own problems, and I wouldn't pay a 'registered Thai breeder' extra for that piece of paper or a promise.

Few american pitbull pups on facebook, cute loking little buggers.

i took in a dog like that one time, however, her baggage did prove to be a problem. German Shepherd that would attack pregnant woman randomly. Not cool.

I've learned my lesson, no more rescue dogs.

[jabir]

The guy that had my JR after divorce didn't want her and used to keep her in his car boot, wifey of the day wasn't having that. Real character she (Jaws) was, slotted right in from day one by first bewildering then completely dominating her other half the Dane.

No end of unwanted/abused dogs, and we got lucky, but 35 years on is a bit late to take on an unknown history with kids around.

So, still undecided...

Jabir,

I can always find you a puppy, but of course there's no guarantees how they will turn out.

We've never been let down yet, but with kids you do have to be extra careful.

[jabir]

No guarantee of course, just like people, but early on was to get them socialised, used to fingers in the mouth/ear/eyeballs and twisted and pinched limbs, kids crawling over them and nicking their food and toys etc, while anything that resembled a snarl got pounced on; whether right or wrong this worked fine, they soon learned their place in the family and found life most pleasant there.

No problem finding pups, they're everywhere, just got to get the ass into gear.
