01/29/2017 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: King Boo is no “Boo” but a real life pup full of good energy and all about having fun with his peers or human friends. He is quite gorgeous, well nourished, healthy and very well dressed in his cow print coat. He has been beautifully cared for by his former owners who unfortunately realized they had no time to bring up a youngster anymore. We have heard this so many times. Indeed, time and commitment are needed to lead successfully a puppy to adulthood and live in almost perfect harmony with him or her. King Boo lived happily with two older children, had no handling issues, was playful, affectionate, house trained and a good boy when left alone in the house. Here, at the care center, King Boo is quite energetic and not a couch potato who sleeps in his kennel. He is eager to come out and have fun. He certainly does in playgroups with his peers where he is bouncy and very inter-active. He surprisingly does not pull that much on the leash, does his business right away, sits readily on command, loves treats and wags his tail a lot. He does not care for scarves around his neck or to be tethered for pictures. Freedom and action is what he likes. He is said to love to play with balls and toys but did not demonstrate yet for us. I guess, let’s just wait and see. King Boo is an active ten month old pup, enthusiastic but obedient, friendly and sociable. Like any youngster his age, he will need additional training and exercise to channel his energy. In good, caring and loving hands, King Boo will make one amazing forever best friend.
