A volunteer writes:  Dbo is such a jolly, happy guy!  He’s always got a big smile on his face, despite the situation he finds himself in.  Surrendered due to his owner moving to a place that he was not allowed, Dbo is described as playful, relaxed and sometimes exuberant around the children he lived with.   He has spent time with cats and is curious but generally ignores them.  He seems to prefer little dogs over big dogs.  Dbo is truly a playful dude.  He loves squeaky toys and when I gave him one, he held it in his mouth through most of our time together, and even carried it back to the shelter with him.  He seems housetrained and knows the commands sit and give paw. Dbo seems like such a great dog-one that is only missing one thing—you! Ask to meet him today.
