About Boof
Boof is a super excitable American Staffordshire Terrier who lives for human affection 🥰.
At just 2 years old, this white-coated sweetheart is bursting with energy and charm! He’s always up for a cuddle, a snack, or a play session — and he settles into new homes quickly like he’s always belonged 🏡💤.
Boof is very food motivated 🍗 and has no issues sharing — no resource guarding here! He’s great with toys and mealtimes, and his love of treats makes him a dream to train 🧠✨.
He’s proven he can jump a 6ft fence 🦘, so he’ll need a secure yard to keep him safe. That said, he’s not known to be an escape artist — just a talented jumper with a zest for life!

Adoption details
Please do not apply to adopt via our animals' PetRescue profile.
Follow the links below to be directed to the Wollongong City Council website, and find your preferred animal's online profile.
Once in the online profile, scroll down and click the link to complete an adoption application. Once received, a member of our team will be in touch to discuss your application and suitability for your preferred animal.
If we deem the animal to be suitable for your home and lifestyle, an in-person meet and greet may be organised.
