Story
Meet Bo!
Bo is a 5-year-old All-American mutt — somewhere between a Corgi and a dachshund, about 30 pounds of pure personality. He’s playful, energetic, and extremely affectionate, and he’s looking for an active person to play with, go on long walks, and maybe hit the dog park together.
Bo is a friendly guy, but when he picks you, he is fiercely loyal. He bonds deeply with his person, which means he needs an adopter willing to work with him on feeling secure — he can be protective of the people he loves. His foster parents have seen significant improvement with consistent training and patience, so this is very workable with the right match.
Bo would fit best with:
•Adults comfortable working with a bonded, loyal dog
• A calm, predictable home environment
• Someone who loves being active — walks, play, outdoor adventures
• Someone ready to commit to ongoing training
A few things to know:
• In his first weeks home, keep things low-key — no parties or big introductions while he’s settling in.
• Bo does well with other dogs in the home.
• His protectiveness is tied to his person and responds well to training. He has shown leash aggression, but this is improving with assertive human leadership.
Bo is fixed and up to date on vaccines. He does not use pee pads because he knows not to pee or poop inside the house. He is crate-trained.
Why he’s worth the wait:
Bo is affectionate, playful, funny, cuddly, and happy. He’s had a rough go of it, spending time in a high-kill shelter, and he’s a sensitive soul who just needs someone to commit to him the way he will commit to them.
