About Boss

Boss is a young and spirited pittie/lab mix, around 1.5 years old, with a striking chocolate brown coat. He weighs about 40 pounds and has a short, sleek coat. Having encountered some challenges early on, his past is hinted at by noticeable burn marks, but that hasn’t dulled his sweet and affectionate nature. Boss is looking for a forever home where he can be the only dog and ideally with older children, as he does not get along with young kids or cats. He loves cuddles and is known for his amusing barking style, which is fittingly why he's named Boss. A secure yard with a high, non-chain-link fence (at least 6 feet) is a must; Boss is quite the escape artist, reminiscent of Houdini! He’s house trained and up to date on vaccinations.
