I'm Colonel Boone (but I'm a pretty casual dude so everyone calls me Boone) and I'm EXCITED to meet you!

I am a Lab/Retriever mix and I'm a little over a year old.

I'm a super friendly guy who's looking for a home where I can have a person (or EVEN better multiple people) to love. 

Are you looking for a best friend who wants to do everything with you? I would LOVE that!!

I have super soft beautiful red hair and the most unusually colored eyes, everyone comments on my looks (my foster mom says it's cause I'm so handsome).

She also says I'm just about the sweetest dog she's met, I love to play, I don't guard food or toys and I'm super laid back with other dogs when they are telling me the rules.

Don't worry if you have to go to the office a couple days a week, I'm amazing in my crate. I hang out there some during the day now and I sleep there quietly all night. 

I'm great with dogs and people, but I'm still young and working on my manners and tend to jump a little so I'm not sure if a home with young kiddos would work for me. I am sure I would love them, but I might jump on them. 

 

There are a few things I'm working on:

I walk pretty well on a leash (I do get excited, though)

I'm working on my housetraining but I'm getting there!

I jump up and I like to see if there is something delicious to eat on the counter, but I can be verbally corrected.

 

Here's what I would love in a family:

Love (so so so much LOVE)

Continued Training

Patience with my unbridled enthusiasm 

I could use a dog to play with, but if I got enough socialization and exercise I would be a great only dog, too

Daily runs/hikes/walks would be amazing (I would be a great running or biking partner after some training)

A nice soft bed to call my own
