Get to Know Us
Thanks for visiting our website. I am called Austin James Stokes. The Austin family are the owners of Bichon Frise Home. We have been breeding this lovely dogs breed since 2015. My wife and I are pet lovers so we took up the initiative to breed these lovely dog breed to satisfy the needs of families who will want to own or add a new member to their family. My knowledge about Bichon Frise Dogs has grown as the years go by as they are a dog breed that are very smart and make us to learn new things everyday.
My history with owning a puppy goes right back to my Christmas holidays when I was 10 years old. My parents bought me a lovely Bichon Frise puppy which I named Liam. Liam gave me a lot of childhood memories when I was growing as a teen. He was more than a best friend to me. He was so lovely and friendly. Each time I got angry back then about something, Liam was always there to console me and make me smile again. I always thought he could talk as he understood me so much. I always speak to him at times hoping he will respond.
Everywhere I went to, Liam was with me. I met my wife in college. We were very good friends back then. She loved Liam until she insisted her parents should get her a Bichon Frise puppy. That was how our love for this lovely dog breed grew up. Later on, we got married and with our love for Bichon Frise dogs. Fast forward to today, my wife and I raise our 2 kids and breed the Puppies on our 3 acres of land where our puppies have enough space to play around.

About Bichon Frise Dogs
The Bichon Frise has a long history and is considered part of the Barbichon breed types. Barbichon refers to the ancient dog breeds that make up a clan of little white dogs. It includes the Bichon Frise, Bolognese, Maltese, and Havanese.
The Spanish used the Bichon breed type as sailing dogs and brought them to Tenerife, the largest island of the Canary Islands, where the breed became known as the Bichon Tenerife. These dogs were also popular with the Italian nobility in the 14th century.
However, one of the facts about Bichon Frise is that it was the French that developed the Bichon into the gentle lap dog we know as today’s Bichon Frise. The AKC first recognized the Bichon Frise in 1971 and it gained full breed recognition in 1973 as part of the Non-Sporting Group.
Potential health concerns to be aware of in Bichon Frise can include bladder infections, cataracts and other eye diseases, and patellar luxation.Good breeding practices can cut down on some of these health issues and make a big difference in the health of puppies.
Reputable breeders will screen their dogs to avoid passing preventable issues to puppies. So, make sure you ask about the health and genetic history of both parents and about any health tests that have been done. The national breed club recommends a hip evaluation, ophthalmologist evaluation, and patella evaluation at a minimum. These little dogs can also be prone to allergies, but there are ways to help your dog survive seasonal allergies to help them get through it.
The Bichon Frise is highly adaptable. Although they thrive in a house with a fenced-in yard, they can adapt very well to apartment living as long as they plenty of attention and some exercise every day.
They do well in most climates. As with most dog breeds, they are sensitive to heat and extreme cold. Bichon Frise can adjust to about any lifestyle as long as they can spend time with their families and don’t have to spend a lot of time alone.
