About Boone

Boone is a young male dog who just arrived from a high-intake shelter. He’s an Australian Shepherd mixed breed with a striking black coat. While we’re still getting to know his personality, he’s eager to find a forever home. Boone's future adopter should be ready for some initial training, as we haven't gauged his experience with house, crate, or leash training yet. As Boone settles in, he’ll undergo vet clearance before interacting with other animals, so stay tuned for updates on his progress. If you're considering adopting him, please fill out an adoption questionnaire. Remember, all members of your household, including kids and pets, need to meet Boone to ensure a good match. If everything aligns, we encourage same-day adoptions! Adoption fees include spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations to start you off right. Boone is waiting for a loving family to call his own.
