Bozo's Story
Dog Name: Bozo The Hound<br/><br/>Breed: Hound mix<br/><br/>Sex: neutered male<br/><br/>Age: 3 years<br/><br/>Weight: 65 pounds<br/><br/>Medical Needs: none<br/><br/>Housebroken: Yes, though he does much better when on a schedule and not left for long periods of time<br/><br/>Crate trained: yes<br/><br/>Good in the car: yes, generally just goes to sleep<br/><br/>Good on a leash: He will freeze when frightened, and still working on pulling<br/><br/>Energy level: low - medium<br/><br/>Need a fenced in yard: 6 foot. Bozo thinks fences are more like suggestions, and he has been known to hop over to pee where the grass is greener.<br/><br/>Dog Friendly: Very. He loves to roughhouse with like-sized dogs, is respectful of dogs that don't want to play, and has been very tolerant of his 17-pound lhasa foster brother who likes to boss him around.<br/><br/>If yes, does your foster need another dog in its adoptive homes? Not necessarily, but he is much more at ease with his own emotional support dog<br/><br/>Cat Friendly? Yes! His foster has three cats and Bozo has been very gentle and sweet with them, and likes to give them kisses.<br/><br/>Kid Friendly: Possibly older children. Fast movements and noise scare him.<br/><br/>If yes, what's the youngest child you'd recommend they be placed with? any old enough to understand he needs time to adjust to new people<br/><br/>Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know about them? Bozo is one of the sweetest hounds you will ever meet, but he's an introvert. He takes his time warming up to new places and people, but once he's comfortable, he's your best friend. He took a couple of weeks in his current foster home to relax and really show his personality. He has since become much more self assured and adjusts to new situations with more ease, especially when there is another dog around to show him everything is safe. He's a home doggy, not an adventure puppy. He doesn't mind a car ride, but dealing with strangers, noise and chaos still makes him freeze up. Need a reading buddy? He'll stay close and keep you company. A gardening pal? He's happy to sun himself beside you. Festivals? No, thanks! He is a very big fan of couches and staring lovingly at his human friends. He's a snuggler and a snoozer. For excitement he likes to watch the world go by from his window, calmly tracking the people going by, wagging his tail at dogs and occasionally barking at squirrels. So he might be timid upon first meeting and prone to being startled in public, but once he's your friend, you have a calm, gentle and loving companion who will always be by your side.<br/><br/>Fosters Location: Grasonville, MD<br/><br/>Application can be found here: https://www.grrde.org/adoption-application (if you already have an approved application on file email GrassRootsDE@gmail.com and ask the app team to pull your app
