About Bonnie - 6 Week Old Border Collie X (Trial 4/7/23)
Meet the super cute, expert snuggler Bonnie. Bonnie is a 6 week old border collie cross who is on the lookout for her forever family.
Bonnie's tail never stops wagging. She is always happy to see you. She just loves being with you and will follow you everywhere. She is a sweet natured puppy with the usual puppy energy and loves to snuggle up for a cuddle or have a snooze in the sunshine.
While Bonnie is a super adorable puppy who loves a snuggle and falling asleep in your lap, she will grow into an active dog and needs a family who is willing to commit to consistent training, regular exercise, socialisation, mental stimulation and opportunities for games, walks, and lots of play.
Bonnie is super smart and is already crate trained and sleeps through the night. She is also currently learning how to be the bestest dog. Trying her hardest at basic commands, toilet training, using the doggy door and walking on a lead. Bonnie is a fast learner but like all puppies, she will benefit from puppy school.
Bonnie has had good socialisation with the dogs that she is currently living with. They include her sister Maggie and four other foster siblings with ages ranging from 10 weeks to 14 years of age.
Bonnie also lives with two small humans who are seven and eight, who she adores and constantly follows around.
Bonnie would benefit from having a social doggie companion that is used to puppies and who she could learn from. She could however happily adjust to being an only dog if her humans were around more often than not and showered her with attention.
Bonnie also deserves a fun-loving family who is home and allows her inside. In return she will fill your house with love.
It is anticipated that Bonnie will be medium in size once fully grown. She will be available to go to her new home from 8 weeks old on the 3 July 2023.
