Meet Bonbon 🐾
Bonbon came to NTASR as part of the Smith County cruelty and hoarding case, where 38 dogs were rescued from heartbreaking conditions. While we'll never know everything she experienced before rescue, one thing is certain: she's discovering just how wonderful life can be when you're safe, loved, and spoiled a little.
 
Estimated to be between 4 and 6 years old and weighing just 19 pounds, Bonbon is a tiny bundle of joy with a big personality. 
This sweet, goofy girl knows how to have fun! She loves a good play session, but she's equally happy curling up beside her favorite person for a long afternoon nap. 
Bonbon is incredibly affectionate and isn't shy about asking for more attention. Expect a gentle paw on your arm whenever she decides the pets have stopped a little too soon. She’s literally glued to her foster’s side. 
 
She's also a huge fan of mealtime. The moment you pick up her food bowl, Bonbon breaks into the cutest happy dance, spinning excitedly in circles before racing to her kennel for dinner. Food and treats are definitely the way to this girl's heart.
Bonbon is fully vetted, potty trained, puppy pad trained, crate trained, and has great house manners. She still finds loud noises and walking on a leash a little scary, and she prefers having her person nearby when it's time to go outside. As her confidence continues to grow, she's learning that the world isn't such a scary place after all. She does have an old injury that causes her to limp in her hind end.
When meeting new people, Bonbon can be a little cautious and might greet them with an adorable little grumble. Don't let it fool you. A few tasty treats, a little patience, and some gentle affection are usually all it takes before she's asking for pets instead.
 
Bonbon enjoys the company of other dogs and would absolutely love having a playful canine companion to help build her confidence. That said, she'd also be perfectly happy as the center of attention with an attentive family who enjoys playing, cuddling, and making her feel safe. 
Bonbon has so much love to give and is just waiting for someone to see the incredible little dog she's become. If you're looking for a playful cuddle bug with a goofy streak, soulful eyes, and enough affection to brighten every day, Bonbon is ready to steal your heart. ❤️
