Boomer

Boomer is a very well-balanced dog in a multitude of respects. His house manners are excellent-there have been no messes or destruction of any household items, even when he is left alone. Nevertheless, he is always thrilled to see you when you walk through the door, even after being gone only briefly. He loves hugs and will happily jump into your arms when prompted.<br/><br/>His table manners are also excellent, as he does not whine or attempt to steal food. Despite not enjoying either the suit or cone he was required to wear after surgery, he cooperates fully when it is time to put them on.<br/><br/>Boomer loves being outside and playing. He is young enough to have plenty of energy, but he keeps most of it limited to outdoor activities. He would make an excellent jogging, biking, or hiking companion, as he will enthusiastically pull you along on walks. With a little more time and training, he could be taught to maintain a more manageable pace-this is really the only thing he needs to work on. He is very driven by his nose, so expect frequent stops on walks, and like most dogs, he is highly intrigued by anything that moves. He will try to take off like a rocket after squirrels, so some preparedness is required.<br/><br/>Indoors, Boomer is very affectionate and loves to cuddle while watching TV. He would likely do best in a home where he does not have to spend extended periods of time alone, as he is definitely a people-oriented dog. He knows basic commands such as "sit," understands what "walk" and "outside" mean, and is very observant and generally intelligent-always trying to figure out what you are doing.<br/><br/>Finding a dog this good-natured and well-behaved, especially after having spent time as a stray, truly makes Boomer a rare gem.
