Introducing Bonkers. Sweet and eager to please, Bonkers is quickly adapting to city life, and is his happiest on a walk in the park! Still learning tricks and toys, Bonkers is a dog who looks to his humans for guidance. Currently sharing a home with another dog and a bunny rabbit, Bonkers has exhibited no prey drive and just wants to be everyone’s friend. As he continues to blossom in his foster home, we know he’d make a fantastic addition to any home and family. Could that be yours? Bonkers is approximately 2y 0m 17d old and is fully grown at 49 pounds. They are microchipped and up to date on all age-appropriate medical care. Their breed is unknown as we have not had a DNA test done. Although our dogs are listed as unknown breed, buildings with specific dog restrictions typically enforce their rules based on what breeds a dog appears to resemble. It's always important to keep that in mind and know your building's policies before adopting a dog. This dog is available for adoption through Muddy Paws Rescue. If you're interested in adopting, the first thing you should do is begin the registration process at www.muddypawsrescue.org. If you are already a registered adopter with Muddy Paws Rescue, please email us at adoptionmeetings@muddypawsrescue.org.
This dog's breed isn't known, so here's general guidance for mixes.
🧠 Temperament
Sweet and eager to please, Bonkers is quickly adapting to city life, and is his happiest on a walk in the park!. Every dog is an individual — temperament depends far more on this dog's history and personality than on breed.
🎾 Exercise
Most adult dogs do well with 30-60 minutes of walking a day plus play and sniffing time.
✂️ Grooming
Brush regularly, bathe as needed, keep nails trimmed and ears clean.

It's always important to keep that in mind and know your building's policies before adopting a dog. Ask the rescue about leash manners, elevator and stair comfort, alone-time tolerance, and whether the dog settles in a small space.
