Boss's Story
Meet Boss — Fort Collins, CO 🐶🤎<br/><br/>Have you ever watched a shy dog slowly realize that humans can be kind? It is one of the most beautiful things to witness.<br/><br/>Boss is a spunky, Approximately 1 year-old Rat Terrier with the most heart-melting eyes and the funniest little personality. He is approximately 10-12 lbs. He is part comedian, is learning to be cuddler, and full of potential.<br/><br/>When Boss first arrived, he was very unsure of people. He likely never experienced gentle human touch before. But once he trusts you? He absolutely melts. He loves being rocked in a rocking chair, lightly pet, and even given little kisses on his head. <br/><br/>He follows his foster mom everywhere and is learning how wonderful snuggly beds and couch blankets can be.<br/><br/>He is still a bit skittish and will need someone patient who can go at his pace — but this sweet boy is SO worth it.<br/><br/><br/>Boss highlights:<br/><br/>• Loves to run zoomies and laps in the yard<br/><br/>Loves to chew on toys, sticks and pinecones<br/><br/><br/>• Big foodie (treat motivated!)<br/><br/>• Hilarious, playful personality<br/><br/>• Great with other dogs<br/><br/>• Sleeps through the night in his kennel <br/><br/>• Would thrive in a home with a yard and a playmate. <br/><br/>• Not leash trained yet<br/><br/>He is currently fostered in Fort Collins with a professional dog trainer who specializes in helping shy, unsocialized dogs gain confidence. The amazing part? She is offering a free training session to his adopter. This is not basic obedience — it is a confidence-building session designed to help you and Boss bond and help him transition successfully into your home.<br/><br/>He would likely do well with:<br/><br/>• A confident canine buddy (not required, but helpful!)<br/><br/>• Older or calm children<br/><br/>• Not sure about cats because the foster does not have any. <br/><br/>Boss came from Oklahoma and deserves a fresh start full of patience, kindness, and safety. <br/><br/>He is going to be incredibly loyal to his person — Rat Terriers are known for that.<br/><br/>If you have a yard, a gentle heart, and room for a little shadow who will follow you everywhere... Boss may be your guy.<br/><br/>Please consider giving this handsome boy his FurEver family 🤍<br/><br/>Apply today to meet Boss.

He follows his foster mom everywhere and is learning how wonderful snuggly beds and couch blankets can be.
He is still a bit skittish and will need someone patient who can go at his pace — but this sweet boy is SO worth it.
