 Adopted
March 12, 2004 Bonnie was a black/tan,
12 week old, female, German Shepherd Dog puppy.
Bred by a backyard breeder, these pups (Bonnie
and Clyde) were not
sold out of the litter in time and were deemed "too
old" and turned out to run the streets
of their small town. These two little ones
were out all by themselves and caught by a
good rescuer who could get them into the safety
of a rescue to find a new home, even at the
elderly age of 12 weeks! Located in Illinois'
puppy-mill-central, these little ones were
given a chance at a good life thanks to the
hard work of a dedicated rescue volunteer working
in the heart of canine terror.
A special thank you goes
out to
Bonnie's sponsor: Laura Staisiunas in honor of her two rescued German Shepherds, Feather and
Sage
