Bobo wouldn't have much chance of helping itself if it was blind and deaf.

Poor Bobo he must have been scared, I am glad he was rescued, If I was that owner of this old dog I would give it a warm place to sleep and food and water withing nose distance,

That is wonderful that he was found and safe from harm. I bet he was very scared since he is deaf and blind. Poor Bobo!

An old dog going missing for three days, could have ended disastrously, and it was great that it was found and rescued before its situation became much worse, due to lack of food, and dehydration.

That is what the police dispatcher said that someone cared enough to take care of Bobo who was in need of being rescued,
