About Boof
Boof is a 6 year-old Great Dane Ridgeback mix looking for a patient, loving family. He is a dog that loves staying at home with his humans and enjoys large doggie company.
Boof has been in care for around 6 weeks and is gaining confidence daily. We completed his vet work, which included the successful removal of double dew claws on both front legs which were causing him pain, and he wouldn’t leave them alone.
Then we had him tested for Heartworm & it was positive, so treatment and support for this will be covered by AINB with 6 monthly testing etc. 🔬
Not suited to a home with small dogs or cats.
From his carer ⭐️
Boof came to us as a very scared and nervous boy who had been chained up all his life. He had so much anxiety during this experience that he chewed the chain and as a result has worn down all his front teeth. Since joining our foster family though he has BLOSSOMED! He is such a silly and funny boy. He LOVES to run around and play with the ball, but is equally as happy to snuggle up and get all the lovies and tummy rubs he can.
Boof has learnt how to sit and wait for his breakfast and dinner and is a very good listener. He loves his food – we are still working on taking our time eating and learning that food will always be there. We are slowly working on his leash skills as he gets paralysed in fear being on the leash. He makes our foster family so happy and he makes our days so much better by just being his goofy, loving self. He is truly one of the bestest and most amazing boys and doesn’t let his past ruin his fun anymore.
The lucky people that Boof chooses to be his forever family have truly won at life and will be blessed to have him.

Adoption details
We list animals for adoption on Pet Rescue as well as on our own Animals-in-Need Website. We talk with people who contact about an animal to see what their needs and situation are. My emphasis is on getting the right animal for the people and the right people for the animal. If everyone's needs are met things usually work out well.
If the situation sounds good we arrange a meeting. If all goes well we let people try the animal out for a couple of weeks to ensure that everyone is happy.
We keep records of all adopters, follow up to ensure all is well and undertake to take back any animal if circumstances change.
