About Boo

Meet Boo: a glossy black Lab mix with more heart than most could hope to find. At 8 years old, she’s mastered the basics—house trained, leash trained, and a pro at car rides, especially with the windows down. Boo has lived around children and other dogs, but at this stage prefers to be the only dog in a home, soaking up all the love for herself. She’s the type to greet strangers with a wag, settle quietly on a cozy blanket, and adjust to household routines with little fuss. Long outside play sessions aren’t necessary, but regular walks and a bit of fenced yard time make her happy. Food is her one non-negotiable: she prefers not to share during meals, but outside of that, she’s affectionate and sweet, happiest near her people. Boo adapts well when left alone for reasonable stretches—five hours or so—without anxiety or drama. Her family is seeking the very best for her due to an unavoidable allergy situation, but their affection for Boo will be felt by anyone who meets her. She’s outgrown the puppy chaos but hasn’t lost her spark for life. If you’re looking for a calm, loyal companion, Boo’s ready for her next chapter. Your new best friend is just one click away.
