Bobo was born on October 31, 1999. He came to us as a youngster of only 8 months old. He was fuzzy and dirty. He had fleas too. First task at hand was a trip to the vet for a shave and flea bath. Then our shots.....OUCH!!!! But we did great.
He was never a loud obnoxious fellow. But he definitely loved to play. He'd chase his ball or beg you to throw his bone for him to fetch. During the 2000 summer, I even got to take him to work with me. I worked for a great lady in Suwanee at the time. She had previously had dogs too, so it was no big deal when I brought BoBo with me. He loved everyone anyways. He thought she was his too. No one wasn't.
He had to greet everyone at the door. If the doorbell sounded, he had to let everyone in the house know that the doorbell had gone off. Not that we couldn't hear it. :-) Then when we opened the door, he would have to smell and inspect the visitor(s). If we were in the back part of the house, he would race through the house to find me and bark until I came to the door to let him "CHECK THINGS OUT". LOL....He was a real mess.
He also had to talk to me. Every morning,
he and I would take Erin to the bus stop. He would climb in the car and ride to the bus stop. Then we would come back and I would have my cup of coffee while he sat on my lap and snuggled with me. He'd get right up in my face and sniff. He had to smell my breath. He liked the smell of coffee. Several times, I thought about giving him some, but decided against it. Then he would snort and YUCK!!!! he'd spray me.
