After struggling to thrive at a shelter in the South, Bo was consistently overlooked until he finally found his way to us. This charming 9-year-old beagle is making wonderful progress, having already dropped six pounds on his journey to a healthier weight. Bo is a relaxed soul who absolutely lives for his daily walks; he dances and wiggles with pure joy the second he spots his leash. Because he has such great stamina and a love for movement, he makes a perfect, active companion for those helping him reach his fitness goals. He is well-behaved on a leash with just a little guidance and remains calm and steady while tethered during car rides.
Bo is an incredibly loving boy who can be quite devoted to his humans and his treats. Although generally quiet, true to his breed, Bo will sometimes "sing the song of his people". He also has a classic beagle nose and will instinctively alert or howl when he picks up an interesting scent, particularly when he is on the trail of a rabbit.
This affectionate dog craves human connection and would be happiest in a household where his people are home often. While he is house-trained and has lovely manners, he is not yet a fan of being crated and may find a bit of mischief if left to roam the house completely alone. A fenced yard would be a nice perk, though it isn't strictly necessary. Bo is a low-to-medium energy guy currently living in a foster home near Boston and is ready to meet his potential new family!
