About Bonnie

Meet Bonnie—a petite, black Pit Bull mix who’s roughly 12 years old and has only recently learned what it means to feel safe. Bonnie didn’t have an easy start and arrived deeply shut down, likely due to neglect. She was rescued just in time from the euthanasia list and has slowly transformed into a loving, happy dog once she realized she could trust again. These days, Bonnie enjoys lounging in the sun and spending time outside. She’s crate trained, picking up potty training, and already knows how to sit. Food motivates her, so she’s eager to learn more and responds well to gentle training. She’s shown she can live with other dogs, but is too curious about small animals like chickens and ducks, so a home without those is the best fit. Although Bonnie is still recovering from skin and ear infections, she’s already looking and feeling better after treatment—with her sweet, steady nature shining through. Her ideal family will appreciate her gentle spirit, manageable size, and desire for companionship. Bonnie is ready to put her past behind her and find a family who will treasure her for the affectionate girl she’s become. Fun fact: Born January 1, Bonnie is a practical, loyal Capricorn with a heart for new beginnings. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
