Story
Bonita came to us under unfortunate circumstances, but she hasn’t let that dim her spirit. She’s a high-energy girl who absolutely loves to run and would thrive in a home where she can stay active and engaged. Bonita can be wary of new people at first, but with time, patience, and kindness, she warms up and becomes a loyal, loving companion. Once she trusts you, she’s all in — affectionate, playful, and eager to be by your side. Bonita is dog-selective and may do well with the right canine companion, but she’ll need slow introductions and an experienced adopter who understands her boundaries. She’s looking for someone committed to giving her the structure, space, and love she deserves. Bonita is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm tested, and microchipped. She’s ready to find her person and start her next chapter in a home where she can truly shine.
