Owner Info: Bo came from a kill shelter in North Carolina, and has been with a rescue since December, and is currently being fostered. The rescue will be closing soon, and Bo needs a new home. Bo is about 6 to 7 years old, and weighs 70 pounds. He is not yet neutered. He is reportedly up to date on his rabies and is reportedly heartworm negative. He has cataracts and is completely blind. He is housebroken, although tends to mark in the house, and is leash trained, although pulls some on the leash. He also tends to jump up on people, but his current foster mom is working on this. He is an outgoing dog who is good with people of all ages but must be the only pet in the house. The current foster mom said Bo was fine with dogs in his other foster home, but he has bitten both of her dogs, and she had to use all of her weight to pull him off one of her dogs, and she said he would have done serious harm if she had not intervened. She also said: "Bo will settle down nicely in his crate after a walk. He is a good dog, and just wants to be petted all day."
