DOG OF THE WEEK - Help Bosco Find His Forever Home

This 15-week-old black Labrador retriever mix needs a home. Will it be yours?

Bosco and his siblings, Betsy and Baron, were due to be put down when Home For Good took them in. Bosco and his siblings have been transported up to New Jersey, where they are safe and up for adoption. Bosco will be a large dog when fully grown.

Bosco is very playful, loving and grateful to be alive. He is well socialized and will make a great addition to a loving home. Bosco is happy playing a game of fetch with a tennis ball or lying at your feet as you read on the couch. He walks nicely on a leash, but he would really love a fenced-in backyard where he can run as fast as he wants to.

Bosco loves playing with his toys! Whether it is a stuffed animal or a bone, he likes to carry them around the house so he has something to do no matter where he goes. Bosco is up-to-date with routine shots.
