A sleeping white Bichon Frise lies curled up in a chunky red knitted blanket beside a glowing Christmas tree. 2 / 26

The Whole House Was Ready for Christmas, and One Little Dog Was Fast Asleep

AI imagebichon frisechristmascozy blanket

Wrapped in a thick red cable-knit blanket, a white Bichon Frise lies with her nose tucked into the fluff, eyes closed. The Christmas tree glows beside her, with little lights, wooden ornaments and pinecones, and a brass lamp casts a warm circle across the wall. A tidy living room waits in the background, and her curly coat looks like another soft blanket laid on top of the red one.

Dogs are sleepy creatures, and a warm, quiet spot after a busy day is among their favorite things. Puppies and small dogs often nap for many hours a day, and a cozy bed near the family helps them feel safe. If you set a bed by the Christmas tree, keep it a safe distance from wires, glass ornaments and low branches that she might pull when she wakes up. Cords should be tucked away, and the lights unplugged when nobody is home. Bichons often love blankets, and a washable one is a good idea, since their white coats show every little speck of dust.

Flurry looks perfectly at peace, with the soft glow of the tree around her. Some holiday moments are quiet and sweet, with nothing happening at all. She has found hers, and it is wrapped in red, with a tree to keep watch over her dreams until the family comes back.
