My size is: medium (35kg) Adoption Fee: $395 Hi, I am Boss I know I might look like a bit of a tough guy at first glance, but here’s a little secret… underneath this big, impressive exterior is a sweet, sensitive boy who’s just trying to figure out this big, confusing world. I have so much potential to blossom with someone who sees beyond appearances and understands that confidence can’t be rushed. I’m looking for a special human who believes that good things take time, that trust is earned, and that every dog deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood. Someone who will support me with force-free, reward-based training, gentle encouragement, and the freedom to learn at my own pace. If you have a kind heart, a patient soul, and room in your life for a boy who just needs someone in his corner, I might be the friend you never knew you were looking for. I have a lot of love waiting inside me. I just need the right person to help me feel brave enough to share it. If you think we could be a good fit, come in and meet me! Based on the information we've received and our own observations: - Adults and older children (13+); please bring children to appointment - Gets on with some dogs but not all; I don't want to share my home with one Interested in fostering? This is a great way to give animals respite from the shelter and get them into a loving and comfortable home environment while they patiently wait for their forever home.

If Boss isn't quite the right fit, these dogs are close matches.
