Bonnie

Bonnie first came to Thornberry as a puppy. She has always had limited vision, but this has never stopped her from enjoying life, exploring the world around her or having fun! Sadly, through no fault of her own, Bonnie has found herself back in our care and is now desperately searching for a new family to call her own. As a beautiful Lurcher with limited sight, Bonnie will need adopters who understand her needs and are happy to help her navigate the world using her other senses. She would thrive in a calm, predictable home where she can build confidence at her own pace, feel safe and be surrounded by love and understanding. She loves getting out for walks, enjoying playtime and spending time with her favourite people. We feel Bonnie would be best suited to a quiet, pet-free home with teenage children or older. As she cannot always see people or animals approaching, she can be startled if caught off guard, so a household that understands the importance of approaching her gently and letting her know they are nearby is essential. Although Bonnie can make friends with other animals, introductions need to be slow and carefully managed. For this reason, we believe she would be happiest as the only pet in the home, where she can relax and feel secure. She is house trained, can be left for several hours a day and travels well in the car.
