My story

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

BoJack is a spirited, large young dog with a heart full of love and a playful nature that will keep you on your toes! His enthusiasm and zest for life are infectious, but he will need a dedicated and patient adopter who is ready to provide him with the training and behavior modification he needs to thrive. BoJack is an energetic boy who requires plenty of both mental and physical stimulation. He`s a bundle of energy who will thrive in an environment that offers regular exercise and engaging activities. His new home should be prepared to support his ongoing training needs, especially around his jumping and biting behaviors. Professional training will be essential in helping him learn the best ways to interact and behave in his new home. Prospective adopters should be prepared to read through all of his notes carefully and consider whether their home and lifestyle can accommodate his needs. A commitment to working with trainers and investing time in him development will be key to ensuring a successful and rewarding relationship. If you`re ready for an adventure and have the patience and dedication to help BoJack grow into the well-behaved companion he`s destined to be, he just might be the perfect fit for you. Come meet this enthusiastic pup and see if you can give him the loving home he deserves!
