🾠Meet Boo – The Shy Sweetheart with a Playful Side!
Boo is a shy but fun-loving Labrador mix, just under a year old and around 50 pounds. He’s had a bit of a rough start in life and is still learning that people can be kind, but once he warms up, his playful personality really shines through.
Boo recently had a staycation. He blossomed over the weekend. He loves toys, enjoys a good game of chase or tug, and has discovered that pepperoni and cheese are pretty amazing treats! He did well with crate and house training, and sleeps quietly through the night.
Though Boo is still cautious with new people—especially at first meetings—he’s showing more confidence every day. He’s learned to relax, play, and even check in for affection when he feels safe. He stayed with three dogs and did wonderfully with them; they’ve helped him learn how to just be a dog and have fun.
Boo would do best in a calm home that can give him time to settle in and move at his own pace. Once he feels secure, he loves to play hard and let loose with his dog friends.
With patience and love, Boo will make an incredibly loyal, joyful companion for someone who appreciates a shy dog with a big personality just waiting to shine.
Are you ready to show Boo the world isn’t so scary after all
