Bo didn’t come from a shelter—he came from kindness.
Found as a stray near the Smith Mountain Lake Dam, this handsome 5-year-old, 85-pound gentleman was taken in by a caring family who made sure he stayed safe, warm, and loved while they helped him get back on his feet. After months of living peacefully in their home, Bo has proven one thing above all else: he truly belongs inside a family.
Now, he’s ready for his next chapter.
Why Bo Feels So Special
🐾 5 years old—calm, mature, and well-balanced
⚖️ 85 lbs—big, strong, and gentle
🐶 Good with other dogs (even smaller ones)
🐱 Cat-friendly
🏡 Housetrained and well-mannered
His Personality
Bo is the definition of a gentleman.
He’s easygoing, respectful, and quietly confident. He gets along well with everyone he meets and has settled beautifully into home life with other dogs and even cats.
While he is calm and gentle indoors, his size and personality suggest a dog who would truly thrive with a bit more space to stretch out, explore, and be himself.
✨ Gentle

🐾 Calm
🌿 Easygoing
