Description:
Please contact TE for more information about this pet.Thanks for your interest in a pet from A.R.F.! If you see a pet here, they are still available for adoption and you should apply through our adoption application on our website at https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/ Bono is a 4.5 year old male Shepherd/Collie mix weighing in at approximately 60 pounds. His adoption fee is $500. If you are still interested, please ready more below. Bono is a great dog who is good with people and other dogs who are not aggressive to him. He does prefer older dogs (less puppy energy) and would probably thrive in a home with multiple dogs. He is well house trained and does sit and down very well. He is food motivated and loves canned food on top of his kibble. He loves walks and doesn’t pull very much and rarely barks. He has been taught not to go in bedrooms and bathrooms, is well crate trained, and loves sitting on couches and chairs where he can have a good view outdoors. He hasn’t shown a huge interest in toys, but does like a good game of tug-of-war with a stuffed animal or rope. His foster has taken him to a nursing home and he was a huge hit. Not too focused on the people, but happy to say hi and be petted by everyone for a short time each. He also travels well. Bono is micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations, and neutered. His new family will be required to complete a basic obedience course of their choosing. Bono's adoption fee is $500. A meeting will not be scheduled until you have an approved application, so if you're interested in adopting Bono fill out an Online Application today!
