Bonnie 💔
Bonnie appeared on our radar after we were asked by another rescue had we space for her .. we juggled and said we did .. unfortunately, during that time, while we were rearranging things to accommodate her .. her owners brought her to another rescue where they were also full, but told that they would sort something for her if her owners could bring her home for a day or so ... Her owners agreed that at the time.
Unfortunately, on the way home, they decided to drive in the opposite direction and dump her out on the side of the road, and then continue on their way home.
That led to Bonnie being out on the road walking the road, in the dark, for almost 3 days from start to finish ... throughout those days, there were several groups of people out looking for her, but her owners weren't seen once.
Bonnie was eventually caught by very kind people, Annette and her Daughter, and kept safe until we collected her the following morning.
At that stage the level of neglect Bonnie had endured became clear, the matting, which was now soaked to the skin, her paw pads raw from walking the roads, and a terrified shut down dog who spent a week with us not eating.
Bonnie attended our vets twice in her first week with us, initially for a check up, and then that weekend after she went into her 5th day of hunger strike.
She got clipped down at the vets, and 1.7kg of matts came off ( a huge thank you to Louise ) In the last week shes started to come alive again, shes moved on from the heartbreak that her family made her endure and now shes looking forward to her new life ❤️
Bonnie is now looking for her own forever home, She is a 5 year old Collie x Reteriver and a home that has the following requirements:
• She loves her humans ❤️
• She can live with other dogs big or small
• no cats
• she needs to continue her diet to get her down to a more suitable weight
• she is good in the car just needs a little heave in 😅
If youd like to offer her a forever home please pm the page to start the process ✨️
