Angel is a Bichon Frisé who was born January 1, 2004. She came to live with me March 15, 2004. Angel has been my first pet so it has been quite a learning experience. I never thought I would survive the first year! I did look after my sister’s Bichon, Annie, for a few months after my sister sold her home and went into a retirement manor. Annie was 4 years old when I ’adopted’ her. Sadly, Annie had to be put to sleep not long after her 5th birthday due to numerous medical problems.

The definition for Bichon in Wikipedia is:

Bichon is the name for a group of related toy dogs. They vary in size and type, but all have tails curled over their back, long hair that doesn’t readily shed, short snouts, drop ears, and large, dark eyes. They were all bred to be amiable companion dogs and have a friendly, alert temperament

If you wish to read more information on the Bichon family, there are several good web sites if you do a search with your favourite search engine.

You can see photos of Annie and  Angel in my Gallery. I also have some short video clips of Angel in one of the Gallery albums as well. I also have some photos of another Bichon – Bindi – in Gallery. Bindi was my sister Dot’s dog.
