About Boris

Say hello to Boris! This playful pooch seems to be a mix of Shar Pei and Beagle, or perhaps even a mini Mastiff—either way, he’s absolutely adorable. At 3 years old and weighing in at 42 pounds, Boris is a cuddle-bug who thrives on human affection. He’s fully potty-trained, kennel-trained, and walks well on a leash. Traveling? No problem. Boris is totally chill in the car whether it’s a short trip or a longer journey. Boris enjoys playing fetch, though it can quickly turn into a game of keep-away. After a round of zoomies, he loves to nap it off. He does prefer to eat in his kennel, guarding his food from other dogs as it makes him feel safe. Boris can be vocal when excited, but he’s not excessively so. He will make a wonderful addition to any family. The adoption fee includes a full veterinary exam, neutering, a prepaid microchip, deworming, a rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), distemper combo vaccine(s) suitable for his age, Bordetella vaccine, and flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue.
