BOSCO

Meet Bosco, a sweet and friendly 1-year-old Staffordshire Bull Terrier mix who weighs 48 pounds. He can be a little nervous at first, but warms up quickly and loves food. Bosco is looking for a family who will keep him safe and loved forever.

Ideal Home

Bosco was very tolerant and gentlemanly with a similar-sized spayed female dog. Meet and greets with resident dogs and children are recommended before adoption. His compatibility with cats is unknown and cannot be tested at the shelter.

Ongoing Health

Bosco has done well for all of his exams. He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines and preventatives. Adopters will need to establish veterinary care after adoption.

Training & Support

Bosco may be nervous initially but warms up quickly. He is food-motivated and enjoys meeting people.
