Pets: Labrador-Boston Terrier Mix named Bosco

Q: Do you train with your pets?

Yes, I run with my dog Bosco.

Q: Does your dog travel with you?

He gets very carsick so he didn't get to go on too many road trips.

What breed is your dog?

Quite interesting...his mom was a 20lb Boston Terrier and the dad was a 65lb black lab who lived next door.

Q: Where did you get Bosco?

Bosco came from family friends.
