Could Bo be like Solo?!

Could Bo be like Solo?!


If you have a dog and know the sibling of that dog, does that mean that your dog will display the same behavior at its sibling? For most of us, the answer doesn’t even matter. However, when the dog is Bo, the “First Dog”, everything about him matters, even his brother, Solo. Yes, Bo has a brother and his name is Solo. Karen Douglas, who lives in Washington, DC, says her 14 month old puppy is a handful and has a chewing desire.

Bo and Solo were not from the same litter. In fact, Solo was just that, the only product of Bo’s mom and dad from their first litter. He even has the personality of an only child, always trying to get attention. According to Douglas, there is almost nothing Solo won’t try to chew on. These items include including shoes, purses, books, toilet paper, paper towels, toys that make noises and an empty two-liter soda bottle.

Solo is not a small dog, so it is entirely possible that Bo will grow bigger than his oringinal estimate of a medium sized dog. Due to his rambunctious nature, Solo has been through a great deal of training focusing on education in clicker training, obedience and agility, and is beginning to take on a retrieval sport unique to Portuguese Water Dogs known as Water Work. Perhaps Bo will need some educational training as well and without a doubt will receive all the training he needs.

Douglas said that there was something special about Solo. She commented that , “I saw a certain gleam in his eyes that said, ‘I just want to please, but no one seems to know how to talk to me.’”

i think whatever personality and crazy characteristics Bo might have in common with Solo, he will be just as loved and you can’t do better by any dog than that.
