About Boo

Adoption Fee: $0
Jack Russell / Italian Greyhound
Age: Adult
Sex: Male

So I met this super sweet boy. His mom has medical issues & can no longer take care of him. My heart strings are pulled by dogs daily but Boo Boo here downright shatters my heart. He came to our adoption event- trembled & shook the entire time. Not once did he complain or act out aggressively he just sat there scared, confused & depressed. When one of the volunteers climbed in the pen with him he crawled straight into her lap desperate for affection. If you're looking to rescue an underdog I beg of you to consider Boo Boo. He NEEDS you. Boo Boo is good with other dogs but with the stress of all this change he does tend to guard toys & food with other dogs so those things would need to be kept separate at least at first in a new environment. He would do best with gentle kids as to not scare him. I have not personally seen him interact with cats- although I feel he would ignore them. We could assist in a meet & greet. He is about 15-20 lbs- a little bigger than expected but still a wonderful small/medium size. We believe him to be a 6-8 year old Jack Russel Terrier/Italian Greyhound/Chihuahua mix. Currently he's living in a kennel environment where he has had to stay for the past 3-4 months. If you can't adopt would you consider fostering? This boy needs love, compassion & understanding. Boarding is too much for him. His heart is breaking along with mine. His adoption fee is sponsored to the appropriate home if anyone is interested. Please let us know if you'd like to save this boy- physically & mentally. He's neutered, vaccinated & microchipped.
