About Boof
Meet Boof, an undeniably cute medium-sized dog with a laid-back charm. A delightful mix of playfulness and tranquility, Boof is known for his playful energy and love for the game of chase, making him a fun companion for children and adults alike. This wonderful canine is also toilet trained and walks beautifully on a lead, ensuring peaceful and enjoyable strolls for you both.
Boof embodies the classic traits of his Shar-Pei lineage with occasional dominant behavior around other dogs. He has had exposure to cats, dogs, and kids and can coexist harmoniously with another dog, but thrives best with a firm handler who can guide him to be his best self. With consistent guidance, Boof is learning how to share space and build bonds with other pets.
Boof is perfect for a household that understands the nuances of canine companionship. Whether you're a single pet owner looking for a playful buddy or a family interested in an interactive and entertaining addition, Boof's easy-going nature and adorable antics will undoubtedly warm your heart and home alike.

Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
