Boomer Age: 1 ½ years Qualities: From Boomer's foster parents: Boomer is about a year and a half young and full of high energy. This beagle loves giving kisses and ruff housing with other dogs. He is respectful to other dogs when they tell him no. This fun loving little boy is a sweetie. He listens when you call him and eager for attention. We have been working with him on the command sit. He is doing well. As far as cats, he did not pay them any mind at the vet. Boomer is still a bit of a puppy and always wagging his tail.

Needs: A quiet indoor-only home without small children or dogs. Adoption Fee: $40.00. Adoption includes microchip, spaying and current shots.
