About Bo
This handsome Border Collie mix boy is Bo. Bo is a sweet natured dog looking for an active family who will involve him in family life and provide him with a daily walk or run. At 6 years old, Bo is still an energetic dog, typical of his breed. He has a big heart and loves his people so much that sometimes he gets over-excited when he greets you and can jump up: with a bit of time and consistency this can be worked on; Bo just thinks he is an overgrown lap dog and wants cuddles and fuss! He has been in a family with a toddler and was great with her but rather too bouncy. He would suit older kids/teens as he would love playing and running with them. He will sit and lay down when asked and has a pretty good recall. Will do as he is asked when in the house. He takes treats gently and sit and wait for his food. Bo gets along with other dogs although is rather lacking in the manners department so can be a bit full on when meeting. He does settle and enjoys playing with similar size/energy dogs. He seems to be cat tolerant and ignores chickens unless they wander in front of him in which case he will chase them. As he is super keen to go on walks he can pull initially but again, will settle.
He has spent most of his time outside but doesn't seem to have accidents indoors and would love to enjoy indoor time with his new family. Bo enjoys human and/or dog company and would love to live in a home where he's not alone for long hours and where his busy brain is stimulated. He will need secure fencing.
If you have time for a daily walk, a bit of training and are looking for a smoochy, people-loving dog, then Bo might be just the fella for you!
