BoBo
Am I cute or what! I have great freckles and great
wrinkles, too. And I have a personality to match my good looks! This nice
lady from BRAT picked me up and brought me to her house where I have 3
canine girlfriends to play with. Oh life has just gotten so good for me. It
can only get better if you will give me a forever home.
BoBo is a very playful boy, both with humans and canines.
He is very curious and is quite the counter-surfer. I have not seen any
signs of destruction in the short time he's been here. He also does a great
imitation of a sled dog when he's on a leash. He doesn't seem to have had
any formal training, but he "sits" when asked and can do an awesome "sit
pretty."
BoBo likes to cuddle and be near people. He does not seem to mind
being handled all over. Although there was a male dog in his former home, he
and the other male foster are not getting along. It would be best if his new
home has a female canine rather than a male. And if there is a canine
companion, care should be taken at mealtime to avoid any possible conflicts.
If you think you could provide BoBo with love, activity, and evening
cuddle-time, and can picture him without the white/green eyes he is
brandishing at right, please read the data sheet below carefully, complete
the BRAT
adoption form (if you have not previously done so)
and contact BRAT coordinator,
Roberta Kosek. The coordinator's link will take you to a form that will
ask you your name, e-mail address, the city and state you live in, why this dog is perfect for your family, a
typical day in your household, and, if applicable, how you plan to
transport the dog. |

There is an adoption fee for this dog. This fee
goes to cover all costs associated with the care of current and future
basenjis in rescue. BRAT adopters receive a dog that has been spayed
or neutered, fully vaccinated, temperament evaluated, and tested negative
for heartworm and Fanconi (unless otherwise noted). In addition, BRAT
provides free lifetime post-adoption counseling to help deal with
behavioral issues and also provides a free lifetime identification tag
connected to our "lost dog" toll free number. |
