Meet Bunny! This adorable little lady is about 1.5-2 years old and looks like a bully-breed type mix. Muscular and compact, she tips the scales at 34lbs. Maybe we're biased, but we think she's the perfect size pup!
An absolute delight of a dog, Bunny's a true testament on how resilient animals are. Prior to being rescued, her previous guardian not only attempted (and failed) to cut off her ears but also neglected her physically and emotionally. Upon entering foster, she knew nothing and was scared of virtually everything. With time, patience, and lots of treats she's grown leaps and bounds and is ready for her next chapter.
In her foster home Bunny is crate trained, house trained, and knows how to walk on leash. She's been living with five other dogs who she enjoys the company of, along with four cats who she's convinced cannot be trusted. She'd be happy with a dog sibling or two but isn't a good candidate for feline friendly homes. Initially nervous with new people, she is best suited for homes with teenagers and older. In her spare time she can usually be found tossing toys to herself, chewing on Benebones, patrolling the yard for squirrels, or cuddling with one of her foster moms. Bunny would love a home with a fenced in yard in a quieter setting; she is not a good candidate for city life.
Her fosters share: "Bunny is the funniest, cutest, most entertaining dog. She loves toys, running around looking for squirrels in the yard, and most of all, food. But she didn't start out that way. Bunny came to us in tough shape emotionally and took time to trust us and adapt to indoor life. Thankfully, she's one of the most food motivated dogs we've fostered and because of that is a quick study. It didn't take long for her to fall into our routine and begin coming to us for affection. She is definitely still a timid dog and takes time to warm up to strangers, but once comfortable really blossoms into a stellar little pup. We'd love to see her in a home with people who appreciate quirky dogs, a canine sibling, and a fenced yard. Whoever is fortunate enough to adopt Bunny will be bringing home a ray of sunshine!"
