About Bonnie

Bonnie is a true testament to resilience, capturing hearts effortlessly. At only three years old, this delightful Shih Tzu mix arrived in dire need of care, initially suffering from matted fur, ear infections, and parasites. Despite her rough start, she has shown an unwavering spirit and hope, truly embodying the phrase 'holding out for a hero.' After receiving excellent veterinary treatment, Bonnie is now spayed, vaccinated, and ready for her forever home. She will need daily eye drops for her chronic dry eye condition, which costs about $1 a day—an easy price to pay for keeping her beautiful eyes healthy. With regular grooming every 8-10 weeks to maintain her lovely medium-length coat, Bonnie will thrive. Her personality shines: she's calm, gentle, and adores everyone she meets, including other small dogs. Bonnie is house-trained and dreams of a safe home with a soft bed where she can snuggle up with her family. The ideal home for Bonnie will include a securely fenced yard for her to enjoy. She’s waiting for someone to commit to giving her the love she deserves. Maybe that hero is you.
