Hi Bonnie,
You are a Saint for still being friend's with the woman who allowed strangers to go through your home when you specifically asked her NOT to. You were most gracious to even allow them inside with you being gone. That woman went against you totally and I do hope you rethink her lame excuse for letting these people take advantage of you. The right thing she should have done is this, be ' outside ' waiting for her relatives to arrive. There was no reason what so ever for them to prance through your home at all..!! I would be livid..!! That woman did not care about your feelings, therefore, you should not care about her's. I love your show, your Mom, and you very much Bonnie...you make me smile and laugh a lot before work...thank you..!!

PLEASE GIVE ME THE CHANCE........Mitch......We really need her......Mitch
Thank you for featuring animals for adoption and for encouraging viewers to adopt. Given that millions of cats and dogs are euthanized in this country each year because there aren't enough homes for the, everyone should be adopting. Don't breed or buy while homeless animals die!
Bonnie,
First off great show as always. I watch it the minute I come home from work.
I have to tell you I was very emotional when you told the story about Lani's dog Lacey. I remember when she adopted him on last seasons show and she was so happy. I was happy for her. Then you told the story of how he had head trauma how can someone hurt any animal or anything or anyone for that matter. I was so hurt. I am so happy that Lacey and Lani found each other.
Lani will take very good care of her and she be loved more then she can ever be. Thank you for sharing that story. Very touching.
When it comes to your story of your friend betraying your trust. I know exactly what you mean and it hurts.
First it is your apartment. You were nice enough to let your friend stay with you.
If she knew her family was coming into town regardless of how long you have known her she should have discussed it with you way ahead of time to make sure you were ok with it and your feelings towards it.
Instead she took advantage of your trust and friendship and just didn't care. You were kind enough to let strangers into your home. That was very nice of you. She was wrong in all counts.
I can see why whenever you talk about it you feel like your reliving it all over again. You are a very loyal,kind,honest, and trusting friend and you would expect the same in return.
I myself do everything and anything for everybody and I am the one who always ends up getting hurt.
I was raised to treat people how I would like to be treated and sometimes I have beeen lucky but, most of the time it is a one way street.
I have learned to be aware of who I can trust and who I can't. I have people I have been friends with I had a great time with but then they stab you in the back. Who needs friends like that not me.
I know that anyone can count on me and I can be trusted with anything. It is nice to be trusted and it is also nice to be able to trust someone.
I can't speak for all the people in the world but, I can tell you that people like you and I don't come around that often. We are very loyal, trusting, kindd, and honest, and when you are betrayed it is very hard not to hold a grudge you can forgive but you will never be able to forget.
I can go on and on believe me.
I will be at your show 2 weeks from today. I am hoping we can talk then. We have so much in common. I feel like we are from the same cloth.
I am also Irish/Polish/Catholic and we share alot of similarities when it comes to our childhood and how we were raised and so many things. Great morals and values that will stick with us forever.
Wonderful family and close siblings.
I like youself lost my father at a young age so I know I can relate to you on so many levels.
Thanks for listening.
Ps: I was at 2 of your favorite stores tonight. Bed Bath and Beyond and Costco. The minute I walked into both stores I thought of you. I saw the vaccuum that you have and I hope you keep it for yourself. You did nothing wrong and you have nothing to feel guilty about.
Remember we are not DOORMATS we are human beings !! With great big loving hearts !!
I love you Bonnie. Keep up the good work.. You are the best !!!

Bonnie:
I love to watch you as I get ready for work most mornings. I noticed something this AM that I am sure you did not mean to do on air. You walked out with your phone (?I think) and looked at it just before you sat down. Just a friendly reminder not to do it again! I know you are one of the most sincere people in show bus. but that did not look good.
Keep up the good work! Your show is awesome!
Bonnie--THANK YOU for having your adopt a pet section those wonderful dogs and cats are getting adopted!!!You are an angel to these pets--who may have never gotten a second chance!!THANK YOU!!THANK YOU!!!WOOF MEOW!!
Love from Chicago!
Hi Bonnie,
As always, you have a great show that never gets tiring or boring. Just wanted to let you know that the Adopt -A-Dog segment has been tugging at me ever since I had lost my Sheltie of 14 1/2 years. He was a registered Pet Therapy and Companion Dog, but was my best friend.
I am not able to get a dog now, but after your show today, I finally had the nerve to go my local Animal SHelter and found 2 adorable 5 month oldKitties that are sisters.
Thanks for giving me the push to do what I have needed !
Please keep up the great work !
Hi, Bonnie:
I really love your show,especially Adopt the dogs section.One of my wishes is always be that if I ever win a big jackpot, I will buy a house with 10 acres lot and I will adopt all the dogs from your show and all the shelters. Right now I cannot because I already have four rescued dogs.

Hi Bonnie
Great show today. Thanks for having the openly gay and great guy Tim Gunn on again. As a member of the gay community, I appreciate that you voice your admiration and support for him and other gay guests that you have on your show. While you never voice your political views directly, its clear that you're a kind person who respects and appreciates people from all walks of life.
Hey Debi Deimling: why don't you stay on the Fox News website to voice your racist views. Doesn't seem appropriate to post such vitriol on Bonnie's website.

Hi Bonnie,
I just love your show. I have just recently started watching it and it is really wonderful and refreshing, as you are. I loved you're having Tim Gunn on. I am a gay male and I think he's just adorable. He is so classy and erudite. I would love to get an autographed picture of him and you to add to my collection. I also love that you support dog adoptions on your show. They are all so cute.
Keep up the good work!
Hi Bonnie!
I have been watching your show for the last 8 weeks since I have been home on maternity leave. I love it. I will have to tape you everyday when I go back to work! I loved the story about Lacy today. I have a 1 eyed dog too. Buddy, is a Katrina rescue. My husband and I started fostering dogs for a local rescue group 4 years ago. Buddy was our first foster. He was so sweet we adopted him. He came from New Orleans in a flooded house. He was attacked by another dog when they were trying to rescue all the animals and lost his eye. He also had heartworms, which he was treated and cured. He is the sweetest dog in the world. He and Lacy should hang out and share stories.
I would love to send you a picture of him. He will melt your heart! Thanks for being such an advocate for animal adoption. I love hearing about Charlie.

I never take the time to make comments on a show in writing and sending an email other then to friends about something I've seen is well just not my thing. But this site is impossible. I wanted to comment on todays show since I'm a supporter of no kill animal shelters and love the fact that the show supports adopting animals, but everytime I clicked the link I went in circles. I guess my positive comment will never be read.
What did Dina mean the Bichon mix had an unfortunate/bad haircut! I make my living as a Dog Groomer & have been doing that for 24yrs.
Granted, Bichons usually have longer coats,(then that) but I think the dog looked CUTE!!! The haircut looked good to me. The idea behind animal adoption is to make the dog look cute so someone will adopt it.
Don't make it sound negative to the TV audience!
Someone may like the short haircut b/c it is easy to maintain. Alot of people don't have the time to groom the dog's coat themselves. That's why they hire a Groomer & want the hair cut down!!
Hope the dog(s)get adopted!! Way too cute!
Bonnie, was watching your show today, as I always do and you were talking about things that happened years ago and it still bothers you today. When I had my first baby, I had a long labor, and when I finally delivered, I called my parents, and my husband called his family, and much to our dismay, my cousin had called MY PARENT AND EVEN MY HUSBANDS FAMILY. She stole the joy of us telling our families first, and although I still talk to her, I never forgave her. By the way, Bonnie, I wish that you would buy some new clothes, because you wear that black jacket every day, and i don't think you need to lose weight, You look just fine, Buy yourself something new, Love your fan,
I was just watching that woman with dogs for adoption. The breed of the dog is not a "Min Pin", it's a Miniature Pinscher!!! I really can't stand stupid people.
(~karen--15yrs working with dogs))
Bonnie love the show, but have to say that Tim is a creep! I can't stand to listen to him talk. I don't think I can watch your show if you have people like him on.
i had to comment on friends betraying a trust. Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself not an approval of what they did. It is a waste of energy to hold a grudge.
Your friend made a mistake when she let people into your room against your wishes. One or two of these over a matter of years is just a lapse in judgment. A pattern of not listening to your wishes is another matter. Probably a deal breaker. You have to weigh the good of a relationship against the bad. I believe in the benefit of the doubt and second chances.
