Snoopy and Bonnie Kayaking at Dan Foley

Videos of Bonnie’s first time at Dan Foley Park and Lake Chabot for a kayak ride. I’ll forgive her for falling asleep. I guess the rocking was soothing to her. Snoopy’s a veteran and jumped up on the kayak when I got in.

HSNB Saint Pitties Day Mare Island Brewery Event Bonnie and Snoopy

Each year HSNB tries to get the Pitbulls adopted by co-opting Saint Pitties Day. This year the event was hosted by Mare Island Brewery on Mare Island and it happens that Saint Patrick’s Day is on a Saturday this year, so attendance should be better than it would be in the middle of the week. I did not bring Bonnie because I’m interested in having someone else adopt her over me, but she is technically a foster dog.

Bonnie’s first Bath and Trim

Bonnie was very patient when I gave her a thorough bath and trimmed her all over. I’ll give her a real grooming once I get my grooming supplies fully replaced in a few days. I’m so proud of her for easily navigating up the staircase despite being vision impaired and getting a little more confident in coming down the stairs. Ironically she climbs the little hill in the backyard and back down without hesitation, but the carpeted stairs give her pause.

Bonnie Joins the Fold

Happy to be fostering a vision-impaired dog, Bonnie, who was in the HSNB shelter for about a year. Those who know me know I have a soft spot for blind dogs like the two I recently lost among the five that tragic day. Bonnie seems to have accepted me into her fold and her love of other dogs will hopefully soon be reciprocated by Snoopy, who is clear on his boundaries, but who is also more than tolerating her!
