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, and was born approx December 15,
2009. 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 treat, 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 andactually 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.
