About Bosley
Say hello to Bosley, an adorable Kelpie x Am Staff pup with the softest eyes and the biggest heart. This little guy is already showing signs of being a loyal and loving companion-he just needs a bit of help finding his paws in the world!
Bosley is still learning that it's okay to be on his own sometimes. Right now, he can be a little underconfident and quite attached to his humans, seeking comfort and reassurance in their presence. He may whine and jump up to be closer to you-but it all comes from a place of wanting connection and feeling safe.
What's great is that Bosley is incredibly food motivated and eager to please! This makes training an absolute breeze. He's already able to lure into a "sit" with ease and enjoys engaging with people. With the right guidance, this little guy will absolutely blossom. He may also benefit from another dog in the home to show him the ropes!
We're looking for a dedicated and patient home-ideally one ready to commit to puppy preschool and ongoing training and socialisation. Bosley will thrive in a setting that can offer structure, encouragement, and positive reinforcement as he builds his confidence.
He can be a bit vocal at times (he's got opinions!), but with time and training, he's sure to settle into a calmer, more balanced version of himself.
If you're looking for a pup you can help grow into a well-rounded, happy adult dog-and you love the idea of shaping a puppy with potential- Bosley might just be your perfect match. He's ready to learn, eager to love, and looking for someone to help him feel safe and secure in the big wide world.
