Charlie - February 2020 - Dog of the Month

Congratulations to Charlie, our February Dog of the Month!

Charlie entered this world with his 7 brothers and sisters on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2019. His mama was rescued from a hoarder situation in Washington and gave birth to her babies in the care of a foster family in Portland, who nurtured them until they were ready for adoption. Charlie (formerly known as “Dwight”) is a shepherd, lab and terrier mix. He met his adopted family at 6 weeks while romping around in the backyard with his litter. He stood out as a curious, gentle, and independent little guy and had the cutest eyes and markings around his face, not to mention a very sweet disposition! Ida, Wes, Zach and Robin (his owners) fell in love and by the end of the playdate were well on their way to welcoming him into their family. He still gets to play with three of his siblings who were adopted within the human circle of friends. 

As the dogs at No Bonz can attest, Charlie brings his playful spirit to anyone he encounters. He is sweet and social, and respectful (mostly) of the wishes of others around personal space -- so long as you let him know with a snarl or an ‘uh-oh’ that he needs to chill. Mostly he loves to be with his humans snuggling on couches and beds, running Forest Park trails, or playing with his buddies at No Bonz. 

Abby - January 2020 - Dog of the Month

Congratulations to Abby, our January 2020 Dog of the Month! You have been such a sweet, snuggly, wonderful packmate at No Bonz and we love you!

And now a word from Abby’s momma!

“Abby came to us via the second chance program through the Oregon Humane society from Fresno. Abby has been with us since the fall of 2015, and quickly has become the center of our little family. 

Abby is 5/8th German Shepherd, and 1/8th Lab, Weimaraner, and Shar-Pei! 

She loves to play with her moose baby, herd her cat brother porter (who she loves very much even if she doesn’t want to admit it at times), chase squirrels, and eat peanut butter. Abby also loves to play fetch because #ballislife. She loves her people (especially her auntie Maria) and is incredibly loyal, loving, quirky, and just the derpiest doggo. We are so fortunate to be her parents!” 

Jasper - December 2019 - Dog of the Month

Congratulations to Jasper, our December 2019 Dog of the Month!

Jasper was born in Lebanon, OR and came home with his mom at 8 weeks old. He was 15 pounds of paws and rolls, but grew very quickly into the ~100 lb love sack he is now! Jasper enjoys enthusiastically befriending inanimate objects, prancing around with large sticks (read: small logs), and loving on hoomans. He may pose regally for photos but in his heart he’s a goober who will do anything to make you laugh!

Iggy - November 2019 - Dog of the Month

Congratulations to Iggy, our November Dog of the Month!

Here’s a word from Iggy’s mom: “Iggy is an affectionate and energetic 5-year-old Chesador aka Chesapeake bay retriever and labrador mix. My brother's dog was having puppies and I knew one of them would be mine. Before, my only pets had been cats, but I had considered a fog for years and knew this was perfect timing. Iggy was one of the smaller pups in the litter and my brother thought her sweet temperament would be a good fit for me. Everyone always comments on how soft she is and she loves to lean in for the snuggles and sneak in some kisses! Her hobbies include fetching, swimming and hiking and she especially loves spending time with her extended dog-family at my parents' where there's plenty of land to run on and a pond to swim in. After days at No Bonz About It, she crashes in the car on the way home and sleeps the rest of the day away, saving energy for her next adventure.”

We are so happy to have Iggy with us at No Bonz!! Congratulations, Iggy!!
