Bo is a celebration of imperfection, gimpy back leg and spinal muscles from an FCE (fibro cartiliginous embolism), spinal stroke that cut some of the nerves, got a crook in his tail which rendered it less than a classic Labrador “otter tail” and caused him to bounce back to the kennel where we got him. I call him my wind up dog, when he runs down the path he can’t time the right back leg well and just pogos along on both back legs, his tail rotates in a big circle like a wind up key. As long as he can stuff his mouth full of balls, bumpers, frisbees, sticks, preferably stolen, he’s happy;P)
