Bonita - Cairn Terrier and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption

Meet Bonita!

Bonita is a 3-year-old, 8-pound Cairn Terrier with a sweet and easygoing personality. She is the ultimate lap dog and is happiest when she is curled up beside her favorite people or snuggled comfortably in their laps.

Bonita is as lovable as can be and enjoys spending her days relaxing and soaking up affection. She has also shown a protective side, especially toward the new kitten in her foster home. She is a good listener and has a calm, gentle demeanor that makes her a joy to have around.

Bonita does well going out into the yard to take care of her business and settles in nicely at night. Her favorite place to sleep is on the couch, nestled among the pillows, where she can relax in comfort.

If you are looking for a devoted companion who loves cuddles and quiet time, Bonita may be the perfect match for you.

Bonita is currently being fostered in Staten Island, NY. Her adoption fee is $550.

To adopt this animal, please visit https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt

All of our animals come spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, are microchipped, heartworm negative, current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention, dewormed, and treated for any ailments found upon veterinary examination. The adoption fee covers a portion of these services, and makes it possible for us to continue rescuing animals.

For more information on the adoption fees and the adoption process, please complete our adoption application here: https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt - an application allows us to get to know your family better so we can assess whether the animal you are interested in is a good match for your home. An application does not obligate you to adopt. Please understand that due to the volume of applications some animals receive, we are unable to contact all applicants. If your application is considered a good fit for the animal you are interested in, or even a different pet, a volunteer will give you a call as soon as possible.

We are a foster based rescue and do not have a shelter location where animals can be seen during the week. Please see our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/LouiesLegacy for our weekly adoption album if you are interested in meeting an animal in person. Not all animals attend every adoption event, please check our Facebook page for animal event times and locations before you make a trip to meet a specific animal.

The Cairn Terrier is a small, sturdy breed known for its lively and intelligent temperament. Originating from Scotland, these dogs are recognized for their shaggy, weather resistant double coat, often found in shades of cream, wheaten, grey, or red. Cairn Terriers are independent yet affectionate, making them excellent companions for active individuals and families. Their playful nature and love for adventure highlight their loyal and spirited personality, making them a beloved breed for both home and show settings.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
