dogs. Don't let his lack of a leg fool you, Boo loves to run, play fetch, and wrestle with his dog friends. He is the perfect mix of adventurous and cuddly and is the sweetest boy around. Boo is fully grown and weighs about 17lbs. Boo was found as a stray with a fractured shoulder, possibly after being hit by a car. He was brought to a local shelter, but after no one came to claim him, he was transferred to us so we could help him heal. Unfortunately, while we tried to save his leg, the fracture didn't heal like we hoped. To avoid him being in any pain, we decided to amputate his front left leg. Boo has adjusted very well to being a tripod and is more than capable of doing all the things a four-legged dog can do. Boo is a true charmer who is quick to win your heart with his affectionate personality and adorable big brown eyes. He bonds very strongly and is very much a little lap dog who adores cuddle time. He can be a little barky when he first meets new people, especially men, but he is quick to warm up, and then he will request endless pets. Boo loves playing fetch and playing with squeaky toys. He is also a big fan of treats and is happy to help you finish any meals you need help with. Boo is a well-mannered guy who has his basic manners mastered. He is great on leash and loves his daily strolls around the neighborhood. Boo loves other dogs and has become BFFs with the Brittany spaniel in his foster home. He even attended one of our puppy play groups and was such a sweet boy with all the crazy puppies. He would love another dog to play with in his new home, or the opportunity to have lots of dog friends. Boo needs a kitty-free home. Boo has been doing great in a home with older kids and could be a wonderful addition to a home with kids 10 years and older. Boo is housetrained and is happy to hang out in his crate or free roaming when home alone. He is content to sleep in his crate overnight, but does prefer to be cuddled in bed with you. Boo could do well living in an apartment with proper daily exercise. Boo is such an amazing guy who we all adore, and we can't wait for his forever family to fall in love with him like we have.
