My name is Boots!

My name is Boots.  I'm a 4yr old black and white mixed lovable good boy that has been through a lot before I got here in Michigan.  I was originally from down south and got shipped up here due to a hurricane and ended up losing my home.   I get nervous and skiddish around young children , loud noises and chaos.   Looking for a forever home where I can run and play.  I need to be on a doggy line or preferably in a fenced in back yard or I tend to take off to adventure out.  I love to snuggle , get belly rubs , wrestle with my adopted sister Brownie , get treats after potty breaks and play with hard chew toys.  I don't like noisy toys.   I don't destroy anything but maybe chew on the blanket or sheet that's on my couch/bed.  I know I'm spoiled....lol.  I'm totally housebroken , don't need to be kenneled when my family is out , and I sleep through the night.   I'm allowed in the kitchen and living room with the doors shut on all other rooms.  I do get into a little bit of trouble when food is left out.  ( I will sneak it.)   I will bark and warn you when someone comes by the house , I get excited when people come home and am still learning to not jump on them.  I would do best if there were maybe children that are older , no cats in the household and no other dogs ,especially not male dogs and only do well with my adopted sister Brownie.    I do well with car rides but struggle with bath time.  I can't wait to meet my new family.
