Bobby

Bobby is a relaxed, lovely boy with a beautiful balance of independence and playfulness. He’s the kind of dog who is happy to do his own thing in the yard, but also enjoys being part of the action and joining his people for walks and outings. He’s a patient boy too, happily waiting his turn to hop out of the car before heading off on an adventure.

Bobby loves his toys and is also a big fan of food. He is very polite around his food bowl, and when the high-value treats come out, you’ll definitely have his full attention. His love of treats could be a wonderful way to continue building his confidence, training and connection with his new family.

He is looking for an active family who can take him on outings to satisfy his curious nature and love of exploring the world around him. At the same time, Bobby would also be perfectly happy with quieter days at home, where he can potter around, relax in the yard or simply watch the world go by.

Bobby has lovely manners with other dogs and interacts very well with his canine friends. He is happy to say hello, then either wander off to explore alongside them or do his own thing. His easy-going nature means he could suit a home with a compatible dog companion or enjoy life as a much-loved only dog.

A home with teenagers would be a great match for Bobby, particularly with a family who can continue to provide the boundaries, routine and guidance that help him thrive. With the right balance of activity, structure and affection, Bobby will make a wonderful and rewarding companion.
