About BOLO: Bolo
came to us from a central Indiana shelter ... and frankly, as nice as this boy
is, we can't believe someone wasn't looking for him! The shelter wrote the
following about him: "He is a sweet boy.
I spent time with him and other dogs together to see if I could spot any aggression. There was none. He wanted to play with all of them
-- including the small dogs who were loose in the exercise area with him.
Just amazing for a juvenile unaltered male! He has a great temperament and
is a BEAUTIFUL boy." We met him
at Petco and all fell immediately in love! Bolo is a darling big dog,
maybe about 18 months old, who reminds you of an adolescent boy ... bigger than
he realizes he is; all legs, gangly, and needing to fill out some. He is
such a happy, outgoing dog who seems eager to please, and with no issues
whatsoever that we saw. Just as reported at the shelter, he wanted to play
with all the other dogs. He knows "sit" and "shake" (see his video) though
he does an adorable "wind up/over the head/paw slam" kind of version of "shake"
that you can't help but smile over. Bolo rode great in the car and is just
a smiley wagg-y boy. To meet him is to love him! .

Check back soon or SEND AN EMAIL
to request more information and/or an adoption application. This
dog's adoption donation is $250. If you know how much it costs to give a new dog responsible vet care, you can easily see that this is quite a bargain!
This dog has had a complete health exam, has already been altered (spayed or
neutered), is microchipped, has tested negative for heartworm, has been kept on heartworm and flea preventative, is fully vaccinated and free of parasites.
What to do if you want to
adopt this dog: Just SEND AN EMAIL to request an adoption application!
We will review your application to determine if there is a good match
between your family and this dog. We may suggest another if we can offer a
better fit in terms of lifestyle, experience, other pets, etc. A vet check, reference checks, and a home visit will be conducted before an adoption can be considered for approval.
NOTE:
In the vast majority of cases, the dogs in our program are rescued from
shelters, and Northern Lights has no means by which to collect or verify a dog's
history. We work in concert with our veterinarians, and breed and age
estimates are based on a combination of professional input and our collective
experience. Our policy with information acquired while the dogs are in our
care is that of "full disclosure". It is our goal to ensure the
adopter has all available information to ensure the best possible match between
the dog and the adopting person or family. In some instances, because of
applicant interest, dogs are in our program for relatively brief periods of
time. If we have identified a temperament or health condition while
the dog is in our care and custody, every effort will be made to correct it prior to
adoption OR the adopter will be made aware of the
issue or condition prior to adoption. Northern Lights' screening process
is designed to select only adopters who are willing, and have the means, to
treat conditions which may occur after adoption, and adopter will be
contractually responsible for doing so.
NORTHERN
LIGHTS IS NOT A SHELTER. We are a rescue comprised of individuals who open their private homes to
foster dogs in need of a second chance.
