Hi my name is Angela Montenegro, like from that show “Bones.” I’m super smart and creative. I like to help the shelter staff figure out clues and I like to play with computers.

Hello there! I’m Bonnie. What’s your name? I’m looking for a nice family –maybe one with kids because I have a lot of energy. I play well with other dogs, too, but I’m not sure about cats yet. I love to be brushed and cuddled. Whose couch can I lay on next? Will it be yours?
