My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

LOOKING FOR A FOSTER TO ADOPT!



Meet BMO, a spirited little firecracker who’s eagerly waiting to find his perfect forever home. BMO is 3.5 yrs old and 14lbs. Whether you’re looking for a hiking partner or a chill companion at home, BMO is the perfect blend of both! He’s full of energy and enthusiasm, loving fetch, tug-of-war, hand wrestling games, and all the butt scratches you can offer. While he may take some time to warm up to new people, once you’ve built a connection, you’ll find a very loving and loyal little guy.



BMO enjoys his crate time, fluffy blankets, and plushy beds, where he can relax and unwind. Long walks are a favorite activity of his, giving him the chance to sniff around, explore his surroundings, and let out a burst of energy with zoomies after potty breaks.



BMO does have some special needs that require a patient and understanding adopter. He has touch issues with his paws and body until you’ve established a strong bond with him. His biggest challenge is resource guarding, especially when it comes to his crate and personal space, like couches and beds. To help him transition smoothly into a new home, BMO will need to be in a foster-to-adopt situation. This arrangement allows you to work closely with his current trainer, who will provide support and guidance to ensure a successful and harmonious adjustment.



BMO currently lives with cats and dogs. While he’s coexisting well, we believe he would do best in a home without other dogs. However, he could live with cats, as he’s shown the ability to coexist peacefully with them.



BMO needs an adopter who can establish clear boundaries and provide the structure he needs to thrive. With the right approach, BMO will be a fantastic companion, full of love, fun, and personality. If you’re ready to embark on this journey with BMO and help him reach his full potential, he could be the perfect dog for you!



Vaccinated for rabies, DA2PP, and bordetella. Heartworm negative, neutered, and microchipped.
