About Boo

Boo WHO?! A Boo who would love to be with YOU! Boo showed up with a bit of mystery in his past but plenty of eagerness to make new friends. He’s become the self-appointed Director of First Impressions around the office, happily greeting everyone with an impressive tail wag and making his morning rounds for chin scratches. If you park next to him on the couch, he’s quick to charm and prone to watching a little TV—give him Abbott Elementary and he’ll hang out for the whole episode. If the Alabama Shakes come on, he isn’t above joining in with a quiet, soulful howl. Boo is easygoing and thrives in the company of people. His suspected spinal injury before rescue means he deals with mild urinary incontinence; his bladder needs to be expressed a few times daily. Luckily, Boo’s a cooperative partner and manages this without protest—he even wears a belly band when needed. While he’s settled into life with his foster, he’s ready to find a steady, comfortable place to call home. Fun-sized and scruffy, Boo’s Cairn Terrier roots show in his playful yet low-key personality. He won’t overwhelm anyone—he’s simply looking for someone who enjoys slow mornings and a loyal, amusing companion. If your home could use a daily dose of resilience and scruffy charm, Boo is ready to join you. Click apply to start the adoption process.
