Chihuahua - Bonnie - Small - Young - Male - Dog
To submit an application please go to: http://www.pethavenmn.org/dog-adoption-application Age: 2 years Good with Dogs: Yes Good with Cats: Yes Good with Kids: Yes but shy so only older kids please! Weight: 6 pounds Name/Nicknames: Bonnie My Story: I came all the way from an Arizona shelter to live in the green Minnesota climate thanks to the good people at Pet Haven. I arrived in Minnesota with two other rescue dogs from Arizona on 8/2/14. Hobbies: I love playing with toys, going for walks, and playing with my dog foster brother. Commands/tricks: I come when you call my name and I'm working on basic commands. Crate/potty trained: I am potty trained and will let you know when I have to go out by going to the door, sometimes I can be subtle about letting you know I have to go! I stay in a crate when my foster family is gone during the day (regular 8 hour workday timeframe) and I am fine and quiet all day as long as I have a nice soft blanket to lay on! Activity level: Medium. I'm still an active puppy who loves to play, but I also love to curl up on a blanket on the couch and relax. I love to go for walks and do very well on a leash. Fun things I do/quirks: When I get happy or excited I dance around on my back legs, especially when I see my harness and leash come out! When I am out for a walk, I am a happy, confident woman! Who I currently live with: I live with my foster mom and dad, 2 dog-savvy adult cats (who I have managed to snuggle with) and their young male small breed dog. Before this foster home, I lived in another Pet Haven foster home with two adults and their large breed dog. I never connected with their resident dog and had a hard time connecting with the people in the home; the Pet Haven people think the two are connected (small dogs who I can bond with help me bond with people in the home quicker), which is why I went to the new foster home. While I was in Arizona I lived in a home where the resident cats cornered and bullied me and even then I did not bite! I am always a kind and gentle lady. My ideal family: I am very shy - it takes me awhile to warm up to people and feel comfortable. I need a family who is very patient and will let me warm up to people and situations in my own time. I am especially nervous around men. Older kids who will let me have my space when I need it would be ideal. When I am hanging around with another small dog, I have more confidence so another dog friend to live with would be ideal! If my family is willing to take me to a shy dog socialization class to build my confidence that would be great! Oh - also - I have allergies and we're trying to figure out if they are seasonal or year round. They're not a big deal, but my new family should be willing to work with my veterinarian to keep me comfortable, which may mean suppliments to my food (this stuff called fish oil), frequent baths with special shampoo, or a special diet. Pet Haven is working right now to figure out which of the above apply. ;) Bonnie will be attending Pet Haven's adoption events. Her adoption fee is $320 (cash or check only) and includes spay/neuter, heartworm check, current vaccinations, and microchip and registration. Due to post-adoption services provided, it is Pet Haven's policy to only place dogs into homes within a 60-mile radius of the Twin Cities area.
