My story

  Meet Bonnie – A Brilliant, Beautiful Girl Looking for Her Forever Home   There’s something truly special about Bonnie—a gentle soul with a sharp mind, a soft heart, and a spark that’s impossible to ignore. At just 6 months old and 39 pounds, Bonnie is a Border Collie/Australian Shepherd mix with all the best qualities of both breeds: intelligence, loyalty, and a heart full of love. She’ll likely grow into a graceful and athletic 50-pound adult, but even now, she’s already a standout.   Bonnie isn’t just a pretty face—she’s incredibly trainable, with a natural ability to learn quickly and a deep desire to please. Whether she’s mastering house training (which she already has!) or perfecting her fetch-and-retrieve game (one of her favorite things to do), Bonnie proves every day that she’s ready and eager to become an amazing companion. With just a little time and guidance, this girl could shine in obedience, agility, or just being the smartest dog in your neighborhood.   Her energy is beautifully balanced—she’s playful and fun without being hyper, and she settles down easily for snuggles and downtime. Bonnie gets along wonderfully with dogs big and small at her foster home, handling every introduction with joyful curiosity and a wagging tail. She’s affectionate, adaptable, and deeply connected to the people she bonds with.   Bonnie’s story is one of potential waiting for a solid commitment.  She was originally adopted by a family with a teenage son who loved her but quickly became too busy with school and sports to give her the time she needed. His parents made the difficult but loving choice to find her a new home through Critter Cavalry Rescue, and now she’s patiently waiting for a family who will truly see what a gift she is.   She’s spayed, vaccinated, house-trained, and rides beautifully in the car. Bonnie is still working on leash manners, but with her eagerness to learn and your gentle guidance, she’ll pick it up in no time. While she’s been around cats, her curiosity might be a bit much for a feline sibling—so a cat-free home would be best.   If you’ve been searching for a dog who’s not only beautiful but deeply intelligent, endlessly loyal, and full of love, Bonnie is your girl. She’s ready to give her whole heart to someone willing to help her grow into the amazing dog she was born to be.    To adopt Bonnie, email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com   Bonnie is more than a good dog—she’s a once-in-a-lifetime companion just waiting to bloom.    PLEASE NOTE:  Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.  Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.comMay 27, 2025, 12:09 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt BEAUTIFUL BONNIE, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
