Bichon Frise
The New York City Bichon Frise Playgroup not only socializes these little cuddlies, but works with the Animal Haven Shelter & Sanctuary. Most event proceeds go toward benefiting the shelter. This past November, the group hosted Barking Mad Bingo for owners at the shelter. The group holds a weekly Small Dog Playdate, open to all dogs under 20 lbs., at the New York Dog Spa & Hotel.
