There is an adorable video of me on ACC's TikTok page. Click here to experience the cuteness! My current foster writes:A 50 lb lap dog with the most gorgeous features, Bonita is more than just her looks - she's a smart, loving, affectionate, expert cuddler and impressively athletic fetch-player who loves tennis balls almost as much as she loves food.She loves her people, and can be fearful when meeting new people. But she gets braver when she's given time, patience, and treats! She's highly food motivated, and therefore incredibly teachable. She's a young dog with energy to burn, but with a morning game of fetch, she'll happily nap by your side all day.The city noises are tough for her, and she'd flourish in a suburban or rural environment. An adopter in the city would need to be willing to help her gain confidence. She's fully potty trained, but will have accidents when she's excited - she just can't contain her happiness!! It's super easy to manage.She'd likely do well with a confident older (dog) sibling, but is also very content being someone's one and only. She'd likely flourish at K9 sports like agility or barn chase, but is equally happy just laying by your side - as long as she's had some exercise!Bonita is the perfect name for this pretty girl who gets stopped on the street all day long with people commenting on how pretty she is. She's a cuddly, snuggly gal who loves to stick close to her person, to whom she'll give infinity kisses if you let her. Her love for tennis balls known no bounds, and she'll run for one while still holding another in her mouth. She's an eager and fast learner, especially when there are treats involved.She'll thrive if you have a backyard where she can get out lots of energy, after she's done that she's happiest cuddled up next to you for hours on end. She's growing in confidence and needs a little extra patience as she overcomes some anxiety. If you're looking for an active yet cuddly companion, look no further than beautiful Bonita!A volunteer writes: Are you looking for an adorable dog pal? Look no further! Bonita may be the one for you. She is just about as sweet as can be. Bonita is a lot about fun. She adores yellow fuzzy tennis balls and ignores all other toys. Bonita will bring one to you, but she's only teasing. She doesn't really want you to take it. She immediately picks it up again and dances off with it. When Bonita isn't doing tennis ball stuff, she'll sit on the bench with you. She is quite content to be petted and talked to. Who can resist those soulful brown eyes set against big brown patches?
