My story

Bonita, spayed female, 2-years-old, 31-lbs If you would like to give BONITA a forever home, please contact abetterchancerescue@gmail.com OR log onto abetterchancerescue.org to fill out online application Meet Bonita! Bonita is a pretty young lady, with shiny black coat. The light color hair around her eyes make her stand out in her pack. Despite her young age, Bonita has a calm temperament. Bonita is smart, very observant and shrewd; she would play with other friendly dogs and stay away from the hostile ones. She is loving by nature, enjoys people’s affectionate touching, even it’s from strangers. No matter eating or walking, Bonita minds her manner. She is potty trained and crate trained to sleep overnight. Bonita is also a quick learner, she would wait patiently for snack and sit calmly to be leached, ready for a walk. Bonita would make the best member for family looking for a companion pet. Please watch her videos to learn more about this adorable sweet girl! About Bonita's rescue: As a stray, Bonita was fed by the employees of a neighborhood gas station for a while. A kind lady in the neighborhood noticed this friendly sweet dog and posted their story on social media. Soon afterwards, we responded and managed to place Bonita under foster care, whilst preparing her for adoption. Please watch Bonita’s YouTube videos below: Bonita walks well on leash https://youtu.be/SS9ealfaFak?si=XfhrdV8-l6i5ummU https://youtube.com/shorts/qVNvXgTc4HQ?si=5NyVrjR 87GXkiDW Bonita with male stranger https://youtu.be/xpQZ9eYKYxU?si=VjF5eeu3O7PlCQQE Bonita with female stranger https://youtu.be/lnO9nQFoGQw?si=HXMqrzK8oCVhK-bU Bonita is friendly with cats https://youtu.be/OaAzkqgOfNY?si=DG-i3kFYy5x9m5Cw Bonita playing with other dogs https://youtu.be/TawRtWdOCYk?si=DZptJ1bt_RybtpcA Bonita met other dogs while taking a walk https://youtu.be/bolukEwWwug?si=S-yFhdvBETTBQUpp Temperaments: - SOCIALIZATION - Social inclination: Calm & stable People/Children-friendly: Yes.
