Bonita is a remarkable dog with a remarkable story to tell. Bonita and her friend, Dylan, were found in downtown San Antonio in December of 2025, vulnerable but remarkably friendly. Just a month after taking them in, Bonita and Dylan’s caretaker passed away unexpectedly, and a family friend stepped in to continue feeding and playing with the dogs. They frequently traveled across the city to visit Bonita and Dylan, who were then living together in a backyard, before taking them to SNIPSA for their respective surgeries and vaccinations.
Their temporary caretakers had animals of their own already, and every boarding facility and shelter they checked was already at capacity. Desperately wanting these affectionate pups to get the second chance they deserved in a place they knew would be safe, they turned to SNIPSA.
Now an official member of our adoption program, Bonita—lovingly called Bonnie—has returned to SNIPSA, this time to join our rescue program to find her forever home! In foster care, Bonita is described as a happy-go-lucky girl, playful, and an absolute office favorite. In fact, her caretakers noted that she shares the biggest tail wags whenever she greets new people.
To add to her long list of green flags, Bonita sports the following traits:
Happy-go-lucky and playful personality.
Friendly with other dogs.
Master at posing for portraits.
Great on walks.
Well-behaved in her crate.
Generates the biggest tail wags for new friends.
This unexpected tale of a sweet pup won over our hearts in the blink of an eye––and her personality keeps us falling deeper. After going through so much instability, we’re confident that this fido is ready to settle down in her forever home. So, what are you waiting for? Your perfect dog is with Bonita; all that’s left to do is complete her adoption application!
