Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Bo kindly (I threw that word in) requests not to read any further if you do not have a sense of humor or if you don't know the difference between "purebred" and "purebread".

Badly Behaving Beagle “Bo”
Meet Bo. He’s a badly behaved beagle who is looking for a forever home. Bo looks very handsome, however, behind those cute eyes lies a vast hatred for other dogs, the word “no” and any generally known and societally accepted household rules. Bo came to rescue as an owner surrender. I firmly believe they were tired of living in the wake of the hellscape created in their home by this belligerent beagle.
And did we say he is a beagle? I think we did. But I am not even fully convinced that’s his actual breed.
Beagles have a phenomenal sense of smell and a seemingly endless stamina bred for hunting rabbits. This is partially true for Bo. He has a phenomenal sense of smell and endless stamina but is inept at hunting hares. Instead, he uses this skillset to harass the household trashcans, dinner tables, and countertops while hunting the toddlers in the home and stealing anything of desire from their hands or plates.
Beagles can vocalize in three ways. True for beagles, false for Bo. Bo can vocalize in 4 ways. A bark, a bay, a howl, and a demonic mouth open, tail tucked, ears flapping, paw raised screeching sound resembling a paranormal phenomenon worthy of calling Jason Hawes or Steve Gonsalves.
Beagles are also known for being affectionate and endearing. Bo is known for being bellicose and boujie while demanding his bidding be done by the servants of his household, ie, every human that dwells there and never taking no for an answer. Food is demanded to be delivered on time to avoid the wrath of the gluttonous pup who devours in seconds.
Some of you may take offense to this description, albeit an insanely accurate depiction of the character we care for daily, and scream “dogs are better than people” “’maybe you shouldn’t take care of dogs” “you’re mean” etc etc and that’s your right. To me, dogs are like ice cream…and I like ice cream. All flavors. But let’s be honest, some flavors are just better than others. Some flavors get ordered more often and fit the general mold of taste buds. But then there are flavors like Butter Pecan. There is acceptable butter pecan ice cream, and then there is terrible butter pecan ice cream. It is never “good”. The only person that walks into a Ben & Jerry’s and orders butter pecan flavor ice cream is 58, smokes cigars, and watches Fox News on full volume while stating “Trump’s a jerk but damn, he tells it like it is”. And just like butter pecan flavor ice cream, there is really only one person that could ever want Bo. We aren’t sure who that person is yet, but they exist, surely, they exist.
After all: Honesty is the best policy---right?
So if you are interested in adopting the dog proudly in the running for word’s worst, then apply at forbellessake.org. Or you can ignore this post like the government ignores unidentified objects flying over South Carolina. Your choice. And be very glad you still have a choice…help.
P.S. for a list of “good” qualities about Bo, feel free to reach out. We will do some digging.

Bo, but goes by "B-dog". Insists he was born in the wrong decade. Writes poetry and loves The Cure, but not because of South Park.
__________________________________________
Intake Date: 8 Jan 2023 ----- Date of Birth: 12 September 2016 ----- Breed: Beagle ----- Size: 30 lbs ----- Status: Owner Surrender ----- Compatible with: Other gentle dogs, children. Probably a no for cats but will see as he settles ----- Suitable for: home with a securely fenced yard. No exceptions ----- Medical/Behavioral Needs: Separation anxiety. ----- Additional Notes: Bo came to rescue with his buddy Deysi. He is a what appears to be a poorly bred beagle. He came from the pet store so the odds that he is from a backyard breeder are pretty high. He was surrendered for some behavior issues to include separation anxiety that causes him to get into the trash, scratch at doors and blinds, counter surf and howl. He also has NO manners so we will work on training. He steals food from children, off of tables, etc. He is an unruly little wild man and it's going to be a blast working with him! These dogs are the best dogs. He is TERRIFIED of new dogs so we will work on that too. Would be best to go to a home with a not in your face dog that likes to play and will give him a chance to trust. All of these things may make him sound like the world's worst dog, but he isn't. We are just transparent when many aren't so it can seem that way. Trust me, he is far from an awful dog, and he is only going to do better and better from here. An active home would be great! Or one with a BIG yard and a dog door so he can do all the beagle things. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If interested in meeting and potentially adopting please read the adoption requirements and complete the adoption application located at forbellessake.org. Once processed and approved a meet and greet can be scheduled and if a match an adoption is finalized at that time. Adoption fee is $175 and all dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, and treated for any known medical needs. Breeds are not guaranteed but often a best guess. Housetraining is not guaranteed but crate training is worked on with all residents. If a yard is present, a secure fence is mandatory.

BELLE'S STORY
Belle, a dog rescued by Christian and Shelby, sits in the field where she was found in Sumter S.C., April 1, 2012. Belle suffered alone in the field for five days; she was malnourished and had open wounds and fire ants across her body before the family rescued her. She died hours after being rescued. In honor of her, the couple started “For Belle’s Sake Rescue and Rehabilitation,” an animal rescue, rehabilitation, adoption and pet watching service.
In honor of a particularly memorable rescue, a dog named Belle, Christian and Shelby started "For Belle's Sake Rescue and Rehabilitation," an animal rescue, rehabilitation, adoption and pet watching service. Belle was a pit bull mix, or pibble.
Belle passed away April 1, 2012, hours after being rescued. She died from complications resulting from maltreatment. When the Birds received a call to rescue her, she was in critical condition. They found her on the side of a road, malnourished, with open wounds and fire ants on her body. "We got a phone call in the late afternoon about a dog who had been hit by a car," Shelby explained. "A woman was at a stop sign, looked over into a grassy field and saw a head peering over the grass. So she walked out into the field and found Belle laying there."
"Belle couldn't stand and was surrounded by cans of dog food and chicken. She was covered in red ants, which had to have been very painful. We brought her home and set her up in a crate. When we carried her into the house, I flipped her over and her wounds were terrible," she continued. "We immediately called an EMT to come evaluate her since the nearest after hours vet clinic was in Columbia at the time. It was then that I named her Belle."
"She had two shattered back legs, a broken back, all of the skin and muscle was missing from her hind legs from road rash, and she was in organ failure," Shelby explained "We knew if we tried to save her, it would be a long and painful process and she more than likely would not survive it. She needed blood transfusions and both hind legs amputated. The EMT said she was in shock and her body was shutting down.""He said her wounds appeared to be at least five days old," Shelby said. "Meaning she suffered that duration alone in excruciating pain."
"Someone knew she was there because they were trying to feed her," she continued. "But no one helped.""The entire time he was evaluating her, her tail was wagging," she said. "I knelt before her, held out my hands, and asked a very simple question. 'Belle, what do you want?'"She rested her head in the palm of my hands and closed her eyes," she explained. "Her breathing got slow and she told me she was ready to go."
