After a few visits, I think it’s safe to say Bo has officially shed his “shy and reserved” label. This little poodle has truly come into his own at our doggy resort! Today, even before stepping through the door, his tail was already wagging in excitement. And before I could even get his harness off, he was bouncing up and down with his new buddy Ferguson. Seeing this side of Bo was a wonderful surprise! While he had always been curious in the past, he never fully let loose—until now.

So, off to the backyard we went! I let them run freely for quite some time, and Bo embraced every second of it. When we came back inside, he wasn’t done showing his affectionate side. He followed me around like a little shadow, and every time I sat on the couch, he squeezed right in, making sure to stay close.

By the afternoon, it was time for another round of backyard fun. Bo continued to play with everyone more than ever before, his confidence shining through. But then, he hit an even bigger milestone—something I’d nearly given up on. After countless attempts to find a treat he’d actually try, today was the day. Maybe it was because his walls had finally come down, but to my amazement, he happily ate multiple treats!

After his snack, we carried on with our weekly tradition, curling up on the couch to watch Lost. Bo snuggled right into my arms, completely at ease. It’s funny; while he’s always been picky about treats, he’s never had any hesitation when it comes to our baby’s puppy food. It might not be the fanciest or most expensive brand, but somehow, every visiting pup absolutely loves it!

Soon after polishing off his half-sized dinner, his mom arrived to pick him up, bringing another fun-filled day at our little doggy haven to a close. Seeing Bo blossom into such a happy, social pup has been truly heartwarming—I can’t wait to see what new surprises he’ll bring next time!
