About Boof
Boof is a special dog looking for a very special individual or family. He's a timid lad, but that only makes his potential for incredible companionship even more rewarding. Once he establishes a bond, he offers unwavering loyalty and love like no other.
Boof does need a patient and understanding home where he will get the chance to become comfortable in his own time. Once he has settled, it's incredible to see how much joy a little patience brings. He starts wagging his tail more, develops a spring in his step, and even learns to run up to you for hugs.
Boof is better suited in a single dog home, enjoying the peace and tranquility of his surroundings without another dog wanting to play all the time. This will allow him to relax faster and feel at home sooner.
