01/04/2017 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: BBB, or Big Beautiful Bolo, as I like to call him, is basically a big old mushball of joy. Bolo is very friendly and playful, walks well on a leash (only pulling a little when he’s excited to get outside and do his business!), and seems to be housetrained. If you’re looking for a happy, sweet, playful boy whose puppy days are behind him but still has lots of love to give, come and see Bolo at the Brooklyn ACC today!
