Bo

We adopted 9-year-old Bo in April and two months later we can say that he is the perfect dog for us. He is feeling stronger and goes for a good gallop at least once a day. He is faster than you would think! I must admit that those gallops are usually downhill to greet someone, and then he ambles slowly back up the hill–but he at least is starting to run a bit! His personality is coming out more each day as well–he is sweet, loving, gentle, wants to please, has an unbelievable memory, and is a bit stubborn (aren’t we all?). He is also not fond of groundhogs and deer on his property (which he also chases). He loves everyone, goes to the office with me every day, and has attended large family gatherings where everyone is charmed by him.

We are still working on his ear infection. He had one type of infection in both ears and a second type of infection in his left ear. Two of the infections have been knocked out and we are working on healing his last infection.

He and our cat Edison are buddies now; Bo tries to play with him, but Edison is not quite there yet. I think Bo’s persistence and charm will win out.

We are so thankful to have Bo as part of our family!
