A little about them

Boss is a bouncy, spirited bully breed mix who is energetic, playful, silly, affectionate, and full of personality. He loves his people and toys, especially squeaky toys, and enjoys parading around with them. He was surrendered through no fault of his own after his previous owner's health issues and is ready for a forever home.

Ideal Home

Boss lived successfully with older children ages 12 and up. Because he can be jumpy when excited, sturdy, dog-savvy children would be best. He previously lived with another dog, though occasional fights over food and toys were reported; introductions should be handled carefully. His history with cats is unknown, so any introduction should be slow and supervised.

An active home with plenty of exercise and mental stimulation would suit Boss best. A home with a yard is preferred, though apartment living may be possible with sufficient activity and consideration of long-term housing restrictions.

Ongoing Health

The listing notes that neuter and microchip procedures are needed before going home.

Training & Support

Boss is potty trained and has a good handle on most basic skills. He is eager to brush up on his manners and learn more tricks. A positive, reward-based obedience class consisting of one private lesson is required.
