DOG OF THE WEEK

H

ello! I am Bobby. I am a male, 3-year-old 
(almost 4!) Bearded Collie mix weighing 
about 47.8 lbs. I arrived from Texas, and 
I am so happy to be here. I heard Michigan is a 
great place to find my forever home. 
 My foster mom says: “Bobby is the sweetest, 
most kind pup. He does not have a mean bone 
in his body. He is still a little skittish, but he is so 
smart and is realizing that he is safe and loved 
so those fears are disappearing quickly. He has 
gotten the zoomies a couple times and acts like a 
little playful puppy. 
“His intelligence is off the charts, that is why I 
think he will do better in a home with other dogs. 
When he sees his foster sister doing something, 
he immediately does what she does. He is 
working on potty training and is catching on fast. 
He has been great with all people and children. 
Has not been exposed to cats. He is getting used 
to the leash and absolutely loves walks. He walks 
great on the leash once you get him going. I am 
so proud of how far he has come in such a short 
time; he is very easy to love, and we cannot wait 
to see him thrive in his forever home.”

your home? Complete an adoption application for 
Bobby then. He would love to meet you.
