Bo 13-030 [1]

Hello Ragom Land!

I would like to introduce you to Bo! or Bo Bo as FM likes to call him :)

Bo is an Australian Shepherd/Golden Retriever mix. He was surrendered to RAGOM from South Dakota. We are figuring Bo will be a year old in March. Bo came to our house last Satuday, he had never lived in a house previous to this, so we had some house manners to work on. He introduced to our pack just wonderfully! Instantly wanted to play with everyone! :) He spent the afternoon playing and learning the ropes of the house.

Bo is a very beautiful boy, as a young boy he does need to learn some manners, but he learns very quickly! During the day when we are at work he stays in a kennel. He doesn't care for it that much, but he is learning more and more everyday that it really isn't that bad. ;) The first few days took a little while for him to settle in and just relax for a bit, but now he is learning the routine of the house and doing great.

He just stares at the cats through the baby gate (the cats stay downstairs and have full run of the house at night). He has A LOT of energy. He is going to need a home that is willing to work with him on some obedience and is an active home. Older kids would be best, since he has so much energy it might be to overwhelming for younger kids.

I am pretty sure he has some of that herding instinct in him coming from the Aussie side :) He likes to try and herd FM once in awhile. ;) He will get into a garbage and pull tissue out if he can, so we don't leave bathroom doors open.

He also LOVES people. Loves to be with us whenever he is not playing. He is just happy all the time! He is going to be a great dog, with lots of potential.

Contact your placement advisor if you are interested in Bo.
