About Boss

Boss is a nearly 90-pound bundle of joy, sweetness, and pure Labrador love! He came to us as a stray on January 7, 2026, and after patiently waiting, he's ready to find his forever family. Boss is around 5 years and 10 months old, is current on his shots, and is eager to start his next chapter. He's a big, goofy boy who absolutely lives for a game of fetch – once that tennis ball is in motion, nothing else matters! Boss is strong, but he's also incredibly eager to learn and please, and he truly wants to be a cherished member of a family.

Ideal Home

Boss would thrive in a home with a fenced-in yard where he has plenty of space to run, play, and burn off his joyful Lab energy. He is not good with other dogs or cats.

Ongoing Health

Boss is current on his vaccinations and has been neutered.

Training & Support

Boss is eager to learn and please, and with a little guidance, he'll make a wonderful companion.
