About Boswell
Boswell is a big puppy with a luxurious coat. He has beautiful markings including black, red, white and some red heeler speckles on his toes. He has big feet and a lot of growing to do.
He is an assertive young man and makes no show of trying to be polite when he pushes in to make sure he gets the first and longest pat and is first at play time.
Boswell and his sibling, Buster, had a bit of rough start to life. They were chained up 24/7. Boswell hadn't had a lot of human interaction before coming into foster care so he was pretty boisterous with his first taste of freedom. He is now able to sit and enjoy being patted and talked to but he is still pushy about being first.
He comes from intelligent stock so would repay careful attention and training. He currently lives with a sibling and some adult dogs. He does rough 'n tumble with his sibling but is polite with the adult dogs. He wants to chase cats at present so if he were to go to a home with cats there would need to be very careful introductions and he would need to be monitored for quite a while.
Boswell is fostered with late primary school aged children. He could be a little rough for much younger children as he could knock them over in his enthusiasm. He would need to be monitored.
Boswell is not yet housetrained and currently spends his time outdoors only. At night he sleeps in a kennel with other dogs.
He is possessive about his food and would need to be trained to not compete with other animals over food.
