Boomer needs a home!

Boomer is a great boy!

Boomer is now in his new foster home! He is getting along very well with all the other dogs, both large and small, and with the cats. He loves to chase and play tug with the other pointer mix, and it was good fun playing chase with a visiting small (15lb) dog. He does sometimes get in minor trouble with the other dogs by pestering to play too much, but backs off if they grumble at him.

Boomer is still a young boy with lots of puppy energy and curiosity, but he settles down nicely with a bone or a box full of toys. He is doing a good job of learning what things are his, but like any puppy, he makes the occasional mistake, so he still needs someone to keep an eye on him.


Boomer loves people and is quite the snuggler- He thinks that he is a lap dog! He really likes to follow his new people around and be close to them.


Boomer is quick to learn new things and new routines and was already able to be loose in the radio fence yard in the first week he was here.


He is completely housetrained and knows how to sit, come, and lay down. He needs to work on his leash manners, but does ok on a gentle leader harness. His exuberance at being around people leads him to jump, but he is quickly learning that to get attention he has to sit down.
