I’ve got a bichon. Cute as heck, very personable, best doesn’t bark unless your playing with her but has the IQ of a potato.
If she figures out I’m someday now food, no problem.
I got one for my mom (RIP) to replace her poodle.
Oops.
I think you’re being generous by equating her with the potato.
The potato, no doubt, has the superior intellect.
But, she’s a good girl. So, what ya gonna do......?
I have a bichon too. She’s smart as a whip. Had to be living with two large dogs. If I were the only food source, she would figure a way to get a large portion and hide it away from the other two.
