Notes from Bobbie's Pit Bull Rescue & Sanctuary

Bonnie came to our rescue in 2021 from a local shelter partner. She was found as a stray full with milk and must have given birth recently. Animal control searched for her puppies but could not find them. Bonnie was totally shot down at the shelter hovering in the corner. When we came to meet her it took us a while to get her to come to us. With patience we were able to open the gate and get her out. She immediately jumped into the lap of one of our volunteers. Well, we could not leave her behind. Fast forward, after a few months of decompressing and getting used to living in a house she became, although still shy, a sweet girl with lots of love to share. Although she is curious with animals through her crate, Bonnie does not like to share her space with other animals outside of her crate and must be the only animal in the house. Bonnie is house and crate trained and her favorite thing is to lay on the couch. She is looking for effection and is the sweetest girlBonnie rides well in the car, is a healthy 8-year old girl and is doing well at vet visits. No problem trimming her nails either. Although generally a very quiet girl, Bonnie likes to run a few laps around the pasture every day to keep her energy under control. Due to Bonnie's fears she is looking for a home where she is the only animal, children 12+ and we require a fenced backyard for her. Bonnie has been with our rescue for 5 years and has now joined the senior club. We really would love for her to find a forever home where she can get spoiled and loved for the rest of her days. If you are not ready to adopt please consider fostering her. All expenses, i.e. training, medical care, supplies is paid for by the rescue. We do not know what happened to this poor girl before she was picked up by animal control. All we can do is to look into her future and make life a happier place for her. If you are interested to learn more about this gorgeous girl feel free to email us at bobbiespitrescue@gmail.com
