Boo Boo – Wiggly, Chatty, and Full of Charm 🐾
● Friendly, lovable little guy who has settled in quickly
● Happy, energetic greeter who lights up when his people come home
● Enjoys affection and pets — gives an adorable little whine for attention or play
● Good with other dogs and plays nicely
● Eats and sleeps in his crate (with a little encouragement)
● Rides well in the car
● Calm and patient for baths
● Alert barker — lets his humans know when something catches his attention outside
● Likes being near his people but isn’t a constant lap dog
● Loves perching on the back of the couch to survey his kingdom
● Food motivated and a bit pushy about begging
● Knows “sit” and “stay,” though he’s selectively obedient
● Takes firm, consistent correction (a little stubborn but tries)
● Good house manners overall, though still working on marking
● Tolerates a male wrap well and marking has already improved with consistency
● Has a surprisingly loud bark for a little guy
● Unknown with cats and kids, but shows zero aggression and would likely avoid what makes him uncomfortable
*Needs Dental in the near future
Boo Boo is a curly-tailed, wiggly-butted sweetheart with a gorgeous brindle coat and a smooshy face that begs for rubs. He’s full of personality and heart, and ready to charm his way into a forever home.
