She is very energetic and friendly with everyone and other children, and loves to jump on people and be petted. When she meets other dogs, she will initially bark and run around them, and it takes her a while to get close because she's not an outdoor dog; we always keep her indoors. I adopted her when I had been living alone for two years, and my landlord needed to take the house back for renovations, so we had to move back in with my parents. My father has a history of asthma and sometimes has difficulty breathing, and his condition has worsened since being exposed to dog hair. When we first moved back, we kept her indoors.

Story
01/06/26 17:04Placed on Needs Rescue due to shelter being critically over capacity.Dog Front of kennel when approaching, no issue leashing. Walks well on leash and approached adjacent kennels to smell calmly. Would hesitate when passing staff while walking but would quickly return to walking after some baby talking. Fairly stiff posture when outside of kennel. No issues vaccinating, dog remained very docile and allowed invasive handling; attempted to pull away but did not escalate. No issues walking back to room or reaching over to remove leash.

Story
Borris.  This mellow guy loves cuddles, sofa time, toys, bones, and mealtime. He enjoys walks and car rides, and would thrive in a calm home. He’d be happy as an only dog or with a canine buddy. Looking for a laid-back companion? Borris is your guy! Energy Level?  Low House trained?  Yes Describe how they are on a leash?  He walks with a loose leash but does move from side to side—no reactivity to cars, bikes, or dogs.  Describe how they are with other dogs?  Friendly with all dogs, big and small  Have they been around cats or other animals? How were they?  Good with our cat and our dogs Commands they know?  Sit and come What are their favorite things? Laying on the sofa and watching a movie.  What do they need to work on?  He could benefit from additional training.  He's a fast learner. How are they when left alone? How long have they been left alone?  He can free roam the house. He has been alone for 8 hours.  Where do they sleep?  Borris sleeps on his dog bed What is their ideal home?   Borris is looking for a calm, adult home with someone kind and gentle. He’s a sweet boy who needs a little understanding. He doesn’t like to be grabbed by the collar and will give a gentle warning if he feels unsure. Borris loves his walks, car rides, and cozy downtime. He’d be happy as an only dog or with another mellow pup by his side. A peaceful home where he can feel safe and loved would be perfect for him.  October 8, 2025, 5:01 pm
