Welcome to the home of Lilywhite Bichons. We live in the
beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina, under the exquisite Carolina Blue Sky. Our home
is in the country on 4+ acres of land, where our Bichons have access to lots of room for exercise
and play.
- NO CAGES! - Lilywhite Bichons are free to explore, roam, sunbathe and play during the day on our decks, in their sun room, in a fenced 25x75 gravel lot and in a 25x65 grass lot. They are free to come into the house most of the day!
- NO "RUNS"! - Lilywhite Bichons are NOT confined in cement or gravel floored 8x10
"runs" surrounded by chain link for their "exercise," only to be returned to their cages after their "exercise."
- CRATING - Lilywhite Bichons come and go in their open crate "dens" as they wish for daytime naps. Most sleep in crates at night, and the pups are able to observe a normal night time habitat for the adults. Depending on maturity, pups will be crated at night to begin the process of housetraining for their new homes.
Our goal
is to place each pet puppy in a loving, safe
home that is prepared to welcome a young Bichon
Frise, and is able and willing to care for the
needs of this very special companion
animal.
"We breed to
show"
What
does that mean? It means that our primary
objective is to breed healthy, happy
Bichons that most closely meet the AKC STANDARD
for Bichons Frises. We wholeheartedly love this
breed and enjoy breeding, raising and showing
only the very
best.
To
meet this health goal entails ensuring the
parent's of our pups are certified for health by
having their eyes examined and declared clear
and healthy by a veterinary specialist in
opthalmology The hips of the parents are xrayed
and certified - OFA'd. Additionally, we breed
only those that are of a sweet, loving and
stable temperament.
"But we just
want a
pet!"
Exactly!
We keep and show those Bichons that are closest
to the standard and place those that are
evaluated to be pets. The difference between a
pet Bichon and a show Bichon is generally
insignificant to a pet owner. For example - a
tooth or bite that is not correct. Most often a
pet pup has a small shortcoming that you might
not even
notice.
Our
SHOW Bichons and our PET Bichons are the SAME
quality. That is because they all come
from the SAME parents - Parents who are of
superior structure, health and
temperament.
If
you are unfamiliar with this breed, please log

(NC) Kennel
Club.
