BFCACT operates with a small staff of volunteers dedicated to the welfare, rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming of Bichons and Bichon mixes throughout the United States. We do not adopt in California as there are five dedicated associated rescue groups who are active in that state. There are other local rescue groups in some states as well. We are providing the following guidelines:
