Plenty of Pets
Bonnie is a 10-year-old Scottish terrier who weighs25 pounds.
She’s house-trained and is not destructive if left alone for a while. She loves to go for walks and to wade in the water at the beach.
She gets along with other dogs, cat and children. She’s independent in a lot of ways but also loves a snuggle.
Bonnie is spayed, vaccinated, treated for parasites and micro chipped. She recently had her teeth cleaned and a few bad ones removed. She also had a small growth removed from her ear. She comes with 30-days of free pet insurance courtesy of 24PetWatch. Her adoption fee is $200.
