- Bonnie
🎉🐾 May Pet of the Month: Bonnie! 🐾🎉 Proudly loved by Mike and Sandy
Meet Bonnie — a truly remarkable girl who’s showing us all how to age with grace, grit, and plenty of tail wags. At 16 years old, she’s still enjoying life’s simple joys and making every day count.
🌄 Favorite things to do together: Heading up to Lake City for walks, fresh mountain air, and a good swim.
🏊 Does Bonnie enjoy swimming? Absolutely — she still takes short, refreshing dips like a champ.
🧸 Favorite toy: Any stuffed animal she can get her paws on.
🍃 Favorite treat: Greenies — always a hit.
🛏️ Favorite place to sleep: The garage, her cozy and familiar spot.
🌟 Special talents: Just being alive and thriving at 16 is impressive enough — but still swimming? That’s Bonnie-level extraordinary.
🤣 Quirky or funny behaviors: Rolling on her back with pure joy, especially when there’s snow on the ground.
We’re honored to celebrate Bonnie this month — a senior sweetheart who reminds us that every age is a good age to enjoy life.
