Meet Whiskey! BSR#1616 posted 4/10/24
My name is Whiskey, and I am a neutered, 2 year old, 42lb. male. I am a very friendly, and I will retrieve for as long as you can throw a ball, then I will curl up on your feet and keep them warm until we play again!
I am really smart and I know sit, stay, come, but my favorite is "Git it!" When I am outside in the fenced area, I even leave my ball so I can be commanded to "git it." If no one wants to play, I will carry one ball in my mouth while playing soccer with another ball. I have a very good nose, too, and I love to use it. My person thinks I may have a future finding shed antlers or any other version of "git it!"
My person still has to remind me not to jump when I get excited, and I am getting better at that. I never show any interest in getting on the furniture, even though my Boykin foster sister lives on the couch! I do pull a little too much on the leash, but I am working with my person to correct this. I will heel on the left side when told. I am very strong and love to lean and apply pressure to people who show me attention. And, I get along well with my Boykin sister, so I would do well with another dog in my future home.
Speaking of my future home...my dream home would include a big area to run and a fenced area like that would be a plus. I have a lot of energy to burn off! If left alone, I will sit by the door until you return. As mentioned, I would do well with another dog but smaller children and the elderly may have issues with my leaning and jumping. Like most Boykins, I need a lot of exercise and a "job" to do...I love learning new things and that keeps my mind and body in tip top shape!!
Hi! I’m Mack (also known as "Mack-Attack" and "Mack-A-Roni"), a 4 ½-year-old neutered male that is energetic, fast, precious, lovable, vocal, well-trained, muscular, and a super friendly guy. These are just a few of those words called adjectives that my foster mom uses when describing me to others..a lot of words to say that I am a pretty great guy! I weigh in at a solid 46 pounds. So, some would say I’m a big boy, but I promise you it’s all muscle! I have several nicknames,
I know lots of things. I can sit, stay, shake, speak and give high fives just to mention a few. I know my name, too, but don’t always come back when called when I make a run for it. Because of that, I will definitely need a physically fenced yard in my forever home (no e-fences). Due to the fact that I’m a muscular guy and am a very fast runner, I’m not too good at walking on a leash. I tend to pull my foster mom and dad along, so I will really need a lot more work on mastering that.
Other than that, I’m pretty much perfect. Since there are five of us Boykins living together, I guess you could say I get along with others really well. I think I’m pretty special! I’m house trained, too! No accidents which my foster mom is really proud of. I am also crate trained, but I am so well behaved my foster parents let me have free reign of the house when they aren't there.
I really enjoy having all of the boykin fur-siblings, it reminds me of a family. "Family"... I really like that word and am looking forward to finding mine! If you have a large, fenced yard that I could run and play in, that’s at the top of my list with a few other things: I need lots of physical and mental exercise! I’m used to being inside with my foster pawrents and lounging around with the rest of the boykin crew but also enjoy running very fast. I would prefer to have my family home with me most of the time.
I would like a playmate about my age to get a little rambunctious with at times, but it’s not a deal breaker if there’s not one. I want my furever pawrents to show me lots of love and affection and allow me to share all the comfy spots around the house with them. I love a good scratch behind the ears so if you have some extra time on your hands could you sit and stay for awhile and take care of that for me? If I sound like a good fit for you and your family, how about clicking on that "I'm Interested" thingy below here and telling BSR why you would fit my needs?
Meet Hardee! BSR #1598 Seniors for Seniors Eligible! posted 4/28/24
Hey folks, my name is Hardee. I’m a neutered, 10-year-old male and am learning to have fun at my foster home. I’m easy to get along with and my perfect home would have a fenced backyard where I can watch the squirrels and chase geckos. I am kind of independent, but I love to have my head and ears scratched. My top knot is second to none!
My foster dad has nicknamed me "Ojiisan" (Japanese for respected elder) which perfectly fits a southern gentleman like myself. I spent a lot of my life kenneled and crated, so the new freedom I have to wander in the yard is making me young at heart again! I get along well with my foster brothers and sister and snuggle on my favorite dog bed with them.
I have a bit of arthritis in my back legs, so I don’t like to get on the couch or anything, but I stay close to everyone as I lounge. I didn’t know much about house manners when I got to my foster home, but am learning that peeing is an outdoor thing. I don’t mind hanging out in the crate, but I prefer sleeping next to the bed with everyone else. I don’t play with toys much, but I do help my foster brothers chase an occasional ball.
If you are looking for a calm pup for companionship I am your man!
