Boone is an amazing 6-year-old hound mix and the definition of a mellow pup. He is more than happy to curl up on the couch for a movie marathon and keep you company as you go about your day.

 

While Boone is generally a calm dog, he has a goofy side that will steal your heart. He has a few quirks that show just how much personality he has tucked away. You’ll know he is happy when you see his signature "tippy-tappy" dance when it's time to eat and be on the lookout for his adorable "air chomps," another way of expressing just how happy he is. He is super smart and follows commands when needed (and when there are treats involved.)

 

Because Boone is such a sweet soul, he thrives on gentle encouragement. He is a sensitive dog who responds best to soft voices and affectionate praise. He appreciates a peaceful environment and does best with calm handling. While he will cooperate with a crate if you offer a treat, his true happy place is being near his favorite humans, curled up on a rug or leaning in for a pet.

 

Boone is looking for a specific kind of best friend - someone who wants a loyal companion without the demand for constant high-impact activity. He gets along great with other laid-back dogs who match his low-key energy, but he would be just as happy as your one-and-only.

 

If you are ready for a relaxed, affectionate friend who brings warmth and gentle joy to every moment, Boone is ready to settle in.  Apply at www.strongpawsrescue.org to welcome this perfect pup into your family!
