Bichon and Little Buddies Rescue is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit dog rescue located in Mukwonago WI (Waukesha County), just a short drive southwest of Milwaukee.  It is licensed by the State of Wisconsin #268555-DS.

Founded in 2000 as a rescue organization for the popular Bichon Frise, the need for services for other little breeds was quickly noted and our mission was soon expanded to include other small breeds, as well.  On any given day, you will find Bichons, Chihuahuas, Mini Poodles, Dachshunds, Shih Tzus and many others, as well as a great variety of wonderful mixed breed dogs … all needing new homes for various reasons.  Some dogs are surrendered by their owners, some are unclaimed strays, and others are rescued from puppy mills.  Most recently, besides the little dogs, some larger breed puppies, and even a few bigger adults have come to Bichon and Little Buddies to find new homes.  

We hope you will take some time to look through our site and see not only the adorable dogs currently available for adoption , but also those who we were able to place in their forever homes, fondly called our alumni.  We look forward to questions and comments and hope you will also visit our Facebook page for the very latest updates.

We firmly believe that every dog deserves a loving forever home, and we are dedicated to making this canine vision of Heaven come true for the hundreds of dogs we take in every year.

Please remember to make an appointment to visit and see our super adoptable dogs (after filling out an application).

Open House

May Open

 

We hope to see you at our open house.  Please fill out a pre-adoption application if you are hoping to adopt during our open house.  As always, with an approved pre-adoption application, you can set up an appointment to meet the dog(s) you are interested in prior to the open house so you don't risk disappointment if someone else adopts the dog first!
