About Boom

Meet Boomshakalaka—better known as Boom! True to his lively name, this one-year-old, 50-pound Mountain Cur mix is bursting with energy and personality. Boom is the type who brings the party wherever he goes, loving playdates with other dogs and never missing a chance for some good human company. After romping around the yard with a squeaky toy, he’ll flop right beside you on the couch, content and happy. Boom is already neutered, crate trained, house trained, and does well on a leash. He enjoys training sessions, especially if treats are involved, and knows how to "sit" on command. Volunteers describe him as a shelter favorite—there's just something about his eager, goofy charm. He's considered medium-to-high energy, so a house with a yard and an active routine will keep him happiest. Boom would thrive in a home with another playful dog, but his bouncy, mouthy nature means he’s better suited for homes without young children. His feelings about cats remain a mystery for now. Boom is in Blacksburg, VA and ready for his second act—complete with tail wags, couch cuddles, and lots of silliness. Adoption fee is sponsored. Make their next chapter their best one yet.
