Bonito - Cairn Terrier and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption

Meet Bonito!

Bonito is a four-year-old, 11-pound terrier mix with a distinguished gray coat and an old-soul personality to match. While he may look like a wise little gentleman, he's still a young dog who simply prefers a slower pace of life. Bonito's favorite activities include relaxing in the backyard, keeping an eye on the birds, and soaking up the sunshine. He's happy to join you for a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood, but he's not interested in long hikes or marathon adventures.

This easygoing boy is the definition of low-maintenance. Bonito is both crate-trained and potty-trained, making him an easy addition to a busy household. After a short walk, he's perfectly content to curl up in your lap for a movie night or lounge quietly by your side while you relax. If you're looking for a calm, affectionate companion who enjoys life's simple pleasures and doesn't demand constant activity, Bonito may be the perfect match for you.

Bonito is being fostered in East Brunswick, New Jersey and his 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.
