My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Boi is a handsome senior sir who makes everyone he meets swoon! Here’s what one volunteer said:

“I met Boi for the first time and instantly fell in love! What a sweet, nice, charming guy! This cute guy definitely craves human companionship. He wanted to be right next to me – I’m sure he’s an excellent lap dog and couch potato. I offered him a few treats and asked if he could sit for them, and he willingly demonstrated his skill and took the treats softly. I brought him a few soft toys and the second he saw them, his eyes lit up, his tail started to wag, and he took them to his bed and softly chewed on them without tearing them up. They made him so happy - he even took one of the toys with us when we left to go for a walk, and he proudly carried it all the way to the play yard. He was easy to leash up and he walks with a slow, easy gait. He enjoyed exploring the yard and watching people walk by, but he checked in often with me and sought out affection. He still has plenty of pep in his step and sure doesn’t act his age. This boy is a real doll and such a pleasure to be with - one of my new favorites for sure!”

Boi also spent several months in home- here’s what we learned:

- He’s friendly and loves to cuddle
- He loves to stick close to his people
- He’s well- behaved when left home alone
- He loves toys and is definitely a couch potato

Boi may do best in a home without young kiddos and would like to meet any resident dogs before heading home to ensure it’s a good fit. Ask to meet Boi today!!
