About Boaz

Meet Boaz! This 1.5-year-old Labrador Retriever mix is overflowing with affection and potential. He loves being close to his family, whether it’s curling up at your feet or joyfully gnawing on a stick. Boaz is highly food motivated and eager to learn. He’s made fantastic strides in training, improving his manners, leash skills, and confidence with consistent positive reinforcement. Though he missed out on some early puppy socialization, he’s not aggressive—just requires slow introductions to other dogs to build his confidence. Boaz is great with kids, but due to his excitement, older children would be a better match as he continues to learn to tone it down. He’s fully vetted, neutered, vaccinated, and in great health after following a nutrition plan. Plus, adopting Boaz comes with a lifetime commitment from Sea Dog Animal Training, offering local adopters five free training sessions and virtual consultations for out-of-state adopters. Boaz is looking for a family ready to invest in him and receive a lifelong best friend in return. Adoption Fee: $350. Transport is available at an additional fee. What are you waiting for?
