My story

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

Booker here!
What is up?
Me! that's what!!
I'm up for the 'doption and I can't wait. I'm so excited I'm jumping for joyousness.
Some people say I'm famous because I'm in the ole-lympics. But Gold medals didn't change me - I'm still humble Amazing me. Jus looking for a good home and someone to shoot hoops with.
My Hobbies:
🏀The pick-and-roll. I'll pick you up and we can roll on outta here.
🏀Running jumping playing laughing and repeat.
I'm not Going back door I'm going out the front door and soon ...because I have people to love and hoops to shoot.
My first home was an Air ball. I'm gonna do better pick this time.
Whether you are an hoop head or sofa surfer- I'm your guy.
I'm energetic but once I get some playing in we can do what you want.
I'm a slam dunk companion if you like action and entertainment.
Here are more great things about ME...
🏀 Loveable
🏀 Laughable- I'm my own comedy show. I dare you not to have fun with me. Can't happen.
🏀 Fit, healthy, and ready to fly.
🏀 Perfect size for sofa, car and laps. Maybe not the back pack but I'll go where you go!
Meet me on the courts (playyards)
And I'll dazzle you with my spunk and spirit! Not to mention my sick moves. I have skillz.
They say I need to gain some weight-but I'm an athlete. I like my fit shape, Easier to bounce.
I will also need a high fence. This kid comes with air.
To get in here, I had to pass some tests- of course I aced them.
🏀☑️Dogs-Swish nothing but net.
🏀☑️Cats- very lick-able. Apparently that's funny. I got lots of laughs off that move. They do not taste like chicken. They taste like fuzz. I don't recommend.
🏀☑️People are my speciality- kids❓ bring them on. If they got game! Full court press. But I'm not holding back because they are small. We bounce.
Come and check out my moves, you won't look back and you'll have bragging rights. You and me that's all we need. Bonus if you have a hoop.

More about this shelter

The Humane Society of Wicomico County was started in 1968 by a group of people who wanted to help improve the lives of animals. We have come a long way in our 40+ years! We have a staff dedicated to making sure the animals that come to our doors are loved and protected as they wait for their forever home. Not only are our animals vaccinated, wormed and given flea preventative, we can treat animals that come to us with mange, ringworm, heartworm and pay for animals to be seen by an outside vet should there be a need. We have an on-site spay/neuter clinic that not only is used for our animals but we also offer low cost spay/neuter for animals of the public. We provide emergency boarding for victims of domestic abuse, fire, and medical emergencies. We also have the capability to set up an off-site emergency shelter for people evacuated from their homes. In addition, we have an education program to help teach kids about being a responsible pet guardian. We work with a wide range of rescue groups and our animals have been transported from our mid-Atlantic area throughout the North Eastern United States. Our shelter is an open admission shelter and we will take in approximately 3500 animals this year. We do what we do because of our love for animals and our desire to make a difference in their lives every single day.
