Meet Bonnie – A Loving Giant Ready to Share Her Heart

Background

Bonnie is a gentle giant who was rescued from a local pound in December 2021. Likely owned and then abandoned, she has shown incredible resilience and a loving spirit throughout her time at the shelter. She has lived with male kennel mates and has learned to navigate shelter life with patience, curiosity, and affection. Despite her large size, she has a soft heart and a strong desire for human companionship. The team at the shelter have fallen in love with Bonnie.

Personality

Bonnie is affectionate, playful, and incredibly social. She loves giving kisses, snuggling, and engaging with both familiar faces and new friends. She is energetic and enjoys daily walks and outdoor play. Bonnie is smart and confident, but she thrives best with gentle guidance, calm patience, and positive reward-based training. She is strong and excitable at first, so she will need someone understanding of her size and energy who can help her channel her enthusiasm positively. She is independent yet loves attention and will happily share space with male dogs.

Home Required

Bonnie would flourish in a loving home that can provide daily exercise and plenty of mental stimulation. She is best suited for ground-floor living and would benefit from a family experienced with large, strong dogs or someone willing to learn with patience and kindness. Bonnie would do well with a confident male dog companion but may prefer to be the only female.

Bonnie is a remarkable, affectionate, and playful senior dog with a heart full of love to give. She is friendly with people, and shows incredible trust and loyalty once she knows you. With calm guidance, patience, and positive training, Bonnie can settle into a forever home where she can enjoy cuddles, walks, and the love she has so generously to give. This gentle giant is ready to be your loyal companion and bring joy, laughter, and warmth to the right family.
