Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Boss — CEO of Zoomies, President of Playtime, and Your Future Best Friend 🐾
If you’ve been searching for a dog who brings the party and clocks in for cuddle duty, congratulations — you just found him.
At approximately one year old, Boss is rocking that perfect combo of “puppy energy” and “actually listens when you talk.” He’s got a goofy personality that will keep you laughing daily — whether he’s doing spontaneous living room zoomies, inventing new games with his toys, or striking dramatic poses like he’s auditioning for a dog food commercial.
⚡ Energy Level: Olympic Zoomer
🎓 Brain Status: Smart cookie who listens well
🚶 Leash Skills: Professional-level good boy
🏃 Hobbies: Jogging buddy, backyard sprints, supervised squirrel observation
Boss is fantastic on leash and would love to be your running partner. Training for a 5K? Need motivation to get outside? Boss says, “I thought you’d never ask.” He’s young, playful, and full of enthusiasm — but he’s also eager to please and happy to tune in when it’s time to focus.
He’s the kind of dog who will:
Make you laugh on your worst day
Happily join you on adventures
Then crash beside you like he just completed a full work shift
Boss isn’t just looking for a home — he’s looking for a teammate. Someone who appreciates a little silliness, a lot of loyalty, and daily zoomie celebrations.
Ready to let Boss run away with your heart? 🐶💛
