Boomer

Did you know that, according to our friends down under, "Boomer" is a nickname for an adult male kangaroo?  Perfect name for such a handsome, energetic guy in North America given that my favorite position is "upside down" - and Australians are "upside down" in relation to us North Americans…get it?!?  HeeHee!  That''s my best attempt at an attention-grabbing joke…

Now that you're smiling, let me introduce myself.  I'm Boomer - a jokester, 45-lb Shar pei mix who is searching for my Forever Family!  I was transported to my foster family after having been found as a stray in rural Colorado and I'm quickly learning what is expected of a fantastic canine family member.  

Given that I was neutered soon after arrival in my foster home, I've spent the first few days in the so-called "cone of shame".  Luckily, this dreaded cone is temporary and I'd love to be part of an active Colorado Family (hiking, anyone?!?)  I get along well with other dogs I've met - as well as several younger children I've met.  My only witnessed cat encountered involved an intimidating hiss from the feline - which startled me a bit.  I do enjoy chasing squirrels so I'm not quite sure if I'd like to cohabitate with a cat (well…I'd enjoy it but the  cat might not…hee!hee!).  Like all adoptable animals, I'll need to meet any potential future family members before we all make a life-long commitment.

At one-year young, I'm an enthusiastic and playful adolescent who will need a family with the time, patience and dedication to help me develop into that adult dog we all want to be part of our family.  While we're all learning about each other, I promise to keep you laughing with my clumsy, goofy jokey self!!

If you're searching for a canine with a sense of humor, look no further!  Please either email pawscoadoptions@gmail.com or fill out an adoption application on the Paws & Co. Adoptions website TODAY and make sure to mention Boomer!
