About Boston

Meet Boston! Boston is about a year old and weighs around 40 pounds, making him a delightful blend of puppy energy in a medium-sized body. He loves to run, play, and be goofy, but he’ll quickly return for all the cuddles and affection he can get. After a tough start, including an accident that broke his leg, Boston has made a remarkable recovery and is thriving as a playful young dog. He gets along well with other dogs when introduced properly, and he's friendly with kids. Boston is crate trained, potty trained, and leash trained, making him a smart learner. Cats, however, are not his favorite — he sees them as little moving toys, so a cat-free home would suit him best. While he still has some classic puppy habits, like mistaking household items for chew toys, he’s eager to learn and needs someone dedicated to guiding him. Boston is ready for a family who’ll provide playtime, patience, and plenty of cuddles. He’s looking forward to being a cherished part of your life. Your new best friend is just one click away.
