My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Bo is a very special 7 year old Aussie Shep mix with so much love to give after being found as a stray in Western NC. He was found in pretty rough shape but has made great strides since joining his foster family in Richmond VA.

You would never guess his past judging by his friendly temperament. Always with a wagging tail, this gentle giant just wants to rub up against you for head pets whenever you are around. A very loyal friend who enjoys long walks and playing fetch who can be a total goof ball.

He gets along fantastic with other dogs and is able to walk on a leash without much resistance. He has had exposure to cats and seems to respect the space of his foster cat brother despite being a bit too excited at times.

Bo is crate trained and is food motivated. Bo is UTD on all shots and is neutered. The ideal home for Bo would have a big backyard with plenty of space to roam. He would be fine as an only dog or part of a multi dog household.

If you think this lovable guy is a great fit for your family, please fill out our application.
