Bo (Gene) Australian Cattle Dog / Blue Heeler Swarthmore, PA

If interested, please contact the foster home. Petfinder Profiles doesn’t always work.

They call me Gene but I don’t know what my real name is yet. I prefer “LoveBug” because I am the definition of a Velcro dog. I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE people and other dogs. I’m not sure about cats or kids since I haven’t met any yet.

While I’m told I’m around 3yrs old, I act more like a puppy. I’m just starting to learn about these things called manners so I’m looking for someone who doesn’t mind continuing to work with me (they say patience is a virtue). I am a true cattle dog so I can be a bit stubborn but I honestly aim to please.

I love being outside and can walk on a leash with just a little bit of pulling. I haven’t had any accidents in the house and I’m working on crate training. I’ll be the best companion, especially if you’re the outdoorsy type (I’m energetic). Some couch cuddle time is also a passion of mine! Looking for love!

Medical: Gene came to us as a stray with quite a few wounds that needed suturing and his left eye bulging. His eyeball has retracted but he is blind in that eye. His vet has said that it does not need to be removed at this time. It does not stop him from living and loving life to the fullest. He really is a happy go lucky dog looking for his forever home.
