Boss is a 2-year-old Mini Aussie/Heeler mix with a heart full of love and a look that’ll turn heads — he resembles a mini German Shepherd with his sleek dark coat, expressive eyes, and the cutest mismatched ears (one up, one flopped!). At around 35–40 lbs, he’s the perfect mid-sized companion.
Boss is a happy, affectionate boy who greets his people with tail wags, kisses, and eager eyes. He can be a little shy at first and has some mild anxiety, but he’s incredibly eager to please and blossoms with gentle attention. Once you’ve earned his trust, you’ll have a loyal shadow for life.
He’s house-trained, kennel-trained, and knows several commands like sit, lay down, wait, and kennel. He enjoys going for walks and is working on improving his leash manners. He may have the occasional nervous/excited tinkle, but it’s something his foster is helping him work through.
Boss does well with calm, friendly dogs who like to play and has been reportedly kid-friendly. He hasn’t been tested with cats but has shown interest in small livestock (chasing), so a home without those would be best.
*Fenced yard required*
Boss would thrive in a patient home where he can continue to build confidence and get the affection he craves. If you're looking for a loyal, sweet, slightly goofy companion to share your days with — Boss might just be your guy

Since our formation in early 2013, we have helped save thousands of cats and dogs throughout Idaho from neglect, abuse, and death. Many of our rescues come from the Burley Idaho Animal Shelter where PAWS has transformed what was once a high kill facility to a shelter where every adoptable animal gets a second chance! PAWS also takes in stray pets from all over Idaho including Twin Falls, Boise, Nampa, and Caldwell. We work our very hardest to respond to every call for help!
PAWS Rescue, Inc. saves all breeds of cats and dogs of all ages as well as animals who have been hit by cars, shot, abandoned, abused, and neglected.
Rescued animals are placed in loving foster homes or transferred to other no kill partner facilities giving them a chance to find the perfect forever home. Our efforts give these deserving animals a second chance at a happy life.
Every animal receives veterinary evaluation and care, including spay/neuter and vaccines, as well as treatment for any other medical issue they may have. No animal is ever euthanized due to expense.
