About Bora

Bora has the kind of gentle nature that puts people at ease fast. He’s around two to three years old, roughly 75 pounds, and is likely an Anatolian Shepherd mix, though what stands out most is his quiet sweetness. Bora came into rescue after his best buddy Sapa was injured, and his people didn’t want him facing the same danger on his own. Since then, he has proven to be both loyal and loving, one of those rare dogs who seems to just slide in beside you and make any place feel like home. He’s friendly with everyone—humans and other dogs alike. Bora is happy as the only dog, but his playful side shines with another well-matched canine. He’s already house and crate trained, does well on a leash, and is up for whatever you want—neighborhood walks, park time, or a cozy afternoon at home. He hasn’t been around little kids in rescue, so a home with children eight and up is his best fit. Bora is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. He’s a handsome, calm soul ready to devote himself to his family. If you’re looking for a steady, affectionate companion, Bora is ready to join your world. Ready to meet your new best friend?
