This helps Basset Buddies Rescue of Texas with pet care costs.
Hi I'm Boomer,
If you're looking for a dog that enjoys living life at a slower pace and stopping to smell the roses, you may have found your perfect match. I was found by a manager of a Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant where I wandered into the kitchen through an open back door. The cooks started feeding me, the manager called Basset Buddies, and the rest is history. I'm now proving to be about the easiest foster that my foster parents have ever had (they've had about 70, so it's kind of a big deal). I'm a big boy coming in at around 70 pounds. I've got a funny little mole right on the top of my snout that people often mistake for a fly. I'll follow you around the house to show my loyalty and get some exercise. I'll sleep wherever you put me at night, whether it's a crate or a bed. When I sleep, I don't wake up until you get up. So no early morning wake up calls from this hound right here. I love to watch my humans cook, and I sometimes bark to let them know if they need to stir faster or take something out of the oven. I'm a PhD in potty training as I've never had an accident. When you let me out, there is no lingering around --- I get my business done quickly, and then like to stroll through the garden to smell the flowers and watch the birds. When I bark, I have a deep, muted bark that they say is pleasant and not high pitched or loud and annoying like the other dogs in my house. And speaking of dogs, I get along great with my three siblings and am just fine allowing them to be alpha. I'm estimated to be around 8 years old, so I'm definitely past the annoying chewing puppy years but still have some good years ahead of me. Ask for Boomer if I sound like a dog you would like to spoil for the rest of my life.
