Basil is Bonnie’s full sister! Basil started as a darker chocolate but is fading and lightening up to a beautiful blonde chocolatey mix. Basil is an absolute sweetheart. She loves people, and has never met a stranger. She is a total snuggle bug when she’s not too busy wrestling her sister! She is smart, silly, easy going, and has the cutest tiniest face. She is a smaller girl, but with tons of heart! Basil also has a cobby body and short legs, but has a more petite and dainty frame than her sister.
