it’s always worth trying!)

My story

Life wasn’t always belly rubs and treat negotiations

I spent 15 long months living in a shelter in Romania before fate (and maybe a strategically timed puppy-dog eye) landed me a one-way ticket to the UK.

Now, I share a home with two humans who tell me how much they love me every single day (I even get forehead kisses before I go to bed), but the most glorious thing is the endless supply of chin scratches!

Not all my friends at the shelter were as lucky as me though. Some waited for their forever homes a lot longer, and some... well some never found theirs. That’s why I want to bark from the rooftops about the amazing folks at Freedom Angels. They work tirelessly to give pups like me a second chance. 

Here’s the good news: there are plenty of pawesome pups just like me waiting for their forever homes at Freedom Angels. If you’re thinking of adding a furry friend to your family, consider adopting! You can check out their website via the button below and see if there’s a four-legged soulmate waiting for you.

Who knows, you might just save a life and gain a best friend all in one wagging tail!

Who needs pedigree when you’ve got personality?

They say you can't judge a book by its cover, and let's be honest, with 17 different breeds crammed into this furry frame, judging me by my cover is probably pretty confusing. Chihuahua tail? Check. Dachshund legs? Yep. Pomeranian sass? Definitely got a bit of that going on too.

I’m roughly 7 years old (give or take a chew toy or two). My age is a mystery, much like where all those socks disappear to...

I once chased a butterfly for a full 30
minutes. It was exhilarating. And
completely pointless. But exhilarating!

I’m multi-lingual (well, sort of). I understand the universal language of “treat” in 12 different human intonations.

I once outsmarted a squirrel and stole
his acorn. True story (ok, maybe not, but mum said I came real close!)

How to convince your human you deserve extra treats

Since leaving the streets of Romania and becoming a pampered little pooch, I only have one mission: To ensure maximum chin scratches and treat distribution throughout the workday. This very scientific article is going to be focusing on the latter.

Here are my 3 simple steps to get pretty much anyone to give you a treat/ share their food with you:

  1. Make direct eye contact.
  2. Wag tail aggressively.
  3. Drop chin slightly, widen eyes (as wide as you can)

That’s it. That’s the whole process. Just be prepared for the full force of the Bobo Guilt Trip™ (it’s highly effective, trust me).

A guide to the dramatic sigh for disgruntled diners

Empty bowl? This is a culinary atrocity no self-respecting pup should endure. Time to deploy the ultimate weapon: The Dramatic Sigh.

This isn't just any sigh, folks. This is a full-body whoosh of disappointment, guaranteed to melt your human‘s heart (and maybe loosen their grip on the treat jar).

Just inhale deeply, as if burdened by the sheer disappointment of your current meal situation, then let out a long exhale like a heartbroken accordion (and maybe add a sad head tilt for good measure). Trust me, your human will get the message — and maybe even some treats — faster than you can say “leftovers”.

Remember, silence speaks volumes, especially when it‘s a dramatic, sigh-filled silence.

Hey, I’m Bobo! I traded the streets of Romania for an endless supply of chin scratches and dinner portions fit for a king (that’s me, obvs).
