My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Booker T, a lovable 2-year-old pup who’s ready to find his forever family! This sweet boy is great with kids and gets along well with other dogs, making him the perfect addition to a home looking for a friendly, social companion. Booker T has a gentle nature and is eager to share his love with a family that will appreciate his kind heart and playful spirit. He’s looking for a chance to settle into a home where he can thrive and become a loyal member of the family. If you’re looking for a good-natured, fun-loving dog who’s ready for his forever home, Booker T is waiting to meet you!

Hear what his foster has to say about him!

"Meet Booker T, our 2.5yo mixed breed foster pup who is looking for his forever family. Booker was raised in a home with multiple children since he was a puppy but was surrendered due to them not having time to care for him. Booker is a very quiet dog, like a little ghost. Unless you go looking, you won’t even know he’s there. I call him the Pillow Prince because his ideal spot is perched on the highest pillow. He’s a little shy at first and does like to wander sometimes to a quiet place but always circles back and is warming up so quickly. He is very tolerant of his foster sister Maple who is not always a very gracious host. He’s just a very passive gentlemen and removes himself from potential sources of conflict. Booker seems to gravitate towards David, so he clearly has no concerns being around men. He loves being toweled off after being outside in the rain. He is super gentle with the kids, crate trained and sleeps all night without a peep. He is also house trained and despite having free roam of the house, has not gotten into anything, even an open jar of peanut butter stashed in Farah’s room. Outside he plays wonderfully with Maple, so is the perfect blend of playful and peaceful. He is very food motivated so will do anything you ask for a crunchy treat. Please share this post to help find this beautiful boy a family that will treasure him forever. "
