Bosco

Bosco was caught by a doggy trap while the rescue team was actually looking for another lost dog, and accidentally came across Bosco, skinny as a skeleton, terribly frightened and exhausted from the rough life in the wilderness. We believe Bosco has met the typical fate of a local hunter's dog, abandoned or maybe he managed to escape something even worse, we do not know. But we do know that Bosco is a very sweet dog with an open heart, and even though he had to be caught with a trap, he is actually not fearful of humans at all, just of scary situations. He comes to you, looks for closeness in his shy quiet way, and stays near you when he has found safety with you. He is mostly scared of the scary environment around, but not of the humans, which means that for Bosco we are looking for a stable home with a slow-paced routine and not too many changes, Bosco would not like to live in a busy environment like the city, but a quieter suburban town would not be a problem, once he has been introduced to the streets and knows all is safe. The veterinary has estimated him to be around 3 years old based on his teething, however from his character and way of behaving like a shy, but curious puppy, we think he might actually be under 1.5 years old. Bosco loves to live with other dogs, they give him confidence, security and they make him happy! He would like to live in a home close to the nature, where there is already one or more kind dogs waiting for him, he is very submissive with other dogs. Bosco is a very loving dog and he will show it more and more while he grows his confidence. We do not know about his prey drive, he has not been showing it yet. His shoulder height is about 52cm.
