Boone Has Been Adopted!!!

Listen up! Boone is a great puppy, alert and sweet but he is hesitant to trust humans. We are looking for the perfect someone or a family that is willing to take the time and has the patience to convince Boone the we humans have a lot of good things to offer him! Boone would prefer an active yet calm household. So, if you are looking for a puppy but you're not sure because puppies can be such a handful. Boone is your boy! He is a Labrador retriever/German shepherd mix, about 5 months old. He's up-to-date on vaccinations and is neutered.
One of our volunteers was able to get him to come to her everytime she called as long as she had a "valuable" treat (i.e. liver treats, cheese, peanut butter) to motivate. Because he IS highly trainable with these high valued treats, he has the potential to be a good agility dog and he learns easily & quickly.

He also likes to cuddle when he is tired but, is independent when he is outside and playing. He learned to sit at the back door and ring the bell when he needs to go out but is still working on house training. He is one of the easiest/mild mannered dogs we have ever taken in. AND he is a GREAT camping buddy to boot!

Boone's coat is so soft and his eyes so warm it will be worth every effort put forth! He is an easy walker on a leash and his temperament is not dominant so if you are looking for a gentle, lovable, companion Boone is your guy! Plus he has got great markings which make him a one of a kind dog!

We have to say again that Boone is a calm, sweet, easy going pup that is curious and playful. He is being crate trained and actually enjoys being in his crate. He loves collecting lots of toys in his crate too. He is alert but does not bark a lot. He likes to lay in the shade and take it all in.
