Hi. I'm Boone ���%A4 a two-year-old boy with a big head and an even bigger heart. For a while I lived on the streets in a Houston suburb, the friendly stray everyone kind of knew ��%90%BE I never wanted trouble, I just wanted people. I'd let the other dogs eat before me because manners matter, and if I had to choose between food or pets I picked pets every single time. One day I disappeared, and when I showed back up I was at a high-kill shelter ���� it was loud and scary and I got really quiet. I didn't know what was going to happen to me and I was feeling pretty low �ٴ� but the right people saw me just in time �%8F� and came for me. That was the day my second chance began �ٴ� When I got to my foster home my spark slowly came back. I remembered how to smile ���� how to wag my tail, how to trust that humans can be safe ��ե Then plot twist�'�| I got really sick. Emergency vet visit sick ��%A4� big words like severe infection and aspiration pneumonia. I stopped eating, didn't want my medicine ���S I lost weight and my foster family worried about me a lot ���� but I fought my way back. Now I'm healthy, happy, and I've gained most of my weight again. While I was recovering I had slow introductions to new friends ��%90%BE I met cats on leash and gave them gentle nose boops ��%90� yes, I can be polite. I'm dog friendly too. I walk nicely on leash and stay close to my person, no dragging you down the street. I already know come and shake and I'm working hard on sit. I love learning, especially when you're smiling at me while I do it. If you sit down I'll sit near you. If you stand up I'll follow. If you hand me a toy I will carry it around like it's my greatest life achievement �٤� I'm still getting used to my crate but I stay in there while my foster parents work. When they're home I just want to be close enough to see you, close enough to love you �ٴ� I'm sweet ��%8D� gentle and loyal. I've been through hard things but I never let them change who I am. What I want now is simple. A home that will keep building my confidence, help me polish my manners, and love me as big as I love them. And trust me�'�| I love big ���%A4 Could that be you? ��%90%BE
