We hope you’ve been packing that college fund, because this super smart girl is bound for an Ivy League school. Weighing in at a chonkolicious 60 pounds, most of which are her brains, Bonita will wow you with her comprehension and communication skills. If you want her to come, sit, or roll over, all you have to do is ask. And she’s so friendly and polite, always happy to shake hands with a new friend. Come meet Bonita!Here’s some notes from her foster:Bonita is an absolute delight. She is very sweet and very bright. Like, very bright. She showed up already knowing several commands, including sit, stay, paw, down, and roll over, and she can identify them all by both spoken word and hand sign. She picked up twirl and bed in about fifteen minutes each. She is incredibly intuitive and teachable, which is a guardian’s dream. She’s also a goof around the house. She loves to gallop up and down the hallway for a game of fetch, hold a toy up in the air as she wriggles around on her back, and receive as many belly and face rubs as a person can give.Bonita’s energy level is right in the goldilocks zone. She is able-bodied and will gladly go on as long of a walk as you’d like, but at home she never acts out as a means of releasing pent up energy. In fact, she will gladly spend plenty of time snoozing, and she is so good at snoring that she’ll do it with her eyes open, staring right at you. She is also fully potty trained and shows no issues being left alone!She is very trusting and loving but also a confident dog, communicating her needs effectively. She has settled in at our home quickly and isn’t anxious or demanding. She easy, and quiet. And SMART. She has sit, shake, down, etc already figured out.Really, Bonita is one of those dogs who can do it all. She’s as happy napping through a TV marathon or playing with a toy as she is exploring the neighborhood or taking a ride in the car. She’s smart and loving and an all-around joy of a pet.
