Sweet Boone is a 2-year-old, neutered Chihuahua/Dachshund mix weighing approximately 18 pounds. He has the kindest face and the most soulful eyes, and it's impossible not to root for him. Boone was rescued from a heartbreaking hoarding situation where he had very little human interaction. Despite his past, Boone remains incredibly gentle, sweet, and eager for the love he deserves. He is a quiet, thoughtful little guy who observes before jumping into new experiences. Once he feels comfortable, his sweet personality shines through. He doesn't need an exciting lifestyle to be happy; he simply wants a family that will celebrate his small victories and give him the time he needs to blossom. Boone is learning that the world can be a safe place and is making steady progress every day. He would much rather observe before jumping into something new.
Ideal Home
Boone would do best in a calm, patient home that will continue his socialization and help him build confidence at his own pace. A quieter home may be the best fit, and a friendly, confident resident dog could help show him that people and new experiences aren't so scary after all.
