Bonjo

Bonjo is a handsome young Akbash dog, a relative of the Great Pyrenees.  He was doomed to die in an Arkansas kill shelter when we spotted him on-line and notified National Akbash Rescue.  They agreed to take responsibility for him if we sponsored him.  He was pulled from the shelter and is now being fostered in Arkansas while he waits for the right owner to come along.  We sponsored his medical and boarding costs for a few weeks while National Akbash arranged for a foster.  Bonjo is a good example of a situation where the Doomed Dogs Rescue's support makes the difference between life and death to a dog - if not for our sponsorship, the rescue could not have taken the financial risk of indefinite boarding costs while a foster was found.
