Grandma Betty’s Animal Rescue saved Bonnie when she was just five minutes away from being put to death at a local shelter. Lili Follett volunteered to foster Bonnie soon after she was saved, and she quickly grew attached to the adorable pit bull.
According to Follett, no dog is sweeter or more devoted than Bonnie.
"She loves meeting new people and is so trusting. She will immediately plop her head on your lap. She would follow me around my apartment like a little duckling—never more than a few feet away from me, no matter what I was doing! She would also wait for me to wake up every morning and walk over to me to get her morning pet."
Follett went out to find the ideal adoptive home for Bonnie because she would be such a blessing to any family that took her in. But then, her concerns and misconceptions were met as she searched.
Follett said that before the hat, most people would give them ugly glances and deliberately move off the sidewalk to walk around them rather than just walking past.
"Most people were visibly nervous or unsettled when they saw her. Seeing people’s reactions to her made me realize that she would never get adopted without a drastic change. "
