Meet Beau. Our loveable Border Collie/Collie mix. We are not sure what breed of dog contributed to his large size but we don’t care, he is a wonderful pup, so easy to love and to have around. He is good with all people, dogs and even good with cats. Beau came into rescue with some health issues but they are all fixed now and he is good to go. He has a lot of space to run and play at his foster home. Beau does spend a lot of time outside as he spends most of his day out in the fresh air with his 5 foster brothers and sisters. He also enjoys playtime as he will chase a ball- he probably won’t give it back but he does like to chase it!! Beau enjoys toys but does tend to tear up stuffed things. So, we are careful what we do give him to play with. Tough Kong’s are best and he does love squeaky toys!
The only thing we have to be careful of is food. He is a bit protective of his food so we solve that by feeding him alone in the bathroom with the door shut. We can give him treats while other dogs are around him so this is not a serious issue. He does have a large appetite but we feed him once a day at night. He has also lost about 10 lbs since he has been in rescue (he now has a waist!).
Beau would be a great family dog. He is totally housebroken and just loves to be with his people. Beau forms attachments easily. He enjoys quiet evenings watching TV, rides in the car, visits to the dogpark, and chasing tennis balls. He is always interested in going for a walk.
Beau is being fostered in Franklinton, NC. Contact Nancy Solum at nsolum@touchnc.net if you have any interest or questions about adopting Beau.
