Boone - Hound and Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Youngsville, North Carolina

(DOB: 01/13/2026) Boone has the kind of blue eyes that make you stop scrolling and take a second look. Set against his gorgeous brown brindle coat, they're downright striking. But once you meet him, you'll discover that Boone's real superpower is his sweet, gentle heart.

This handsome boy is happy, outgoing, wonderfully submissive—and super dog friendly! If there's another pup around who's ready to play, Boone is ready to join the fun. He loves having canine friends and is always up for a good play session.

Boone is generally a quiet guy, although every now and then, when he feels the need to remind you that he's there, he'll let out the most soulful little howl to request some attention. And honestly? It's pretty darn adorable.

He can be a little nervous when meeting new people, but give him just a moment and his worries melt away. Once he realizes you're a friend, he warms up quickly and is ready to enjoy your company. Older kids that understand a slower approach would be best for Boone.

Boone is also a very clean boy who prefers to keep his living space tidy. No mess-making here! He's decent on leash, too, although he'd happily trade a few walks for some one-on-one practice with his new person. A little time, patience, and encouragement will help him become an even better walking buddy.

Striking looks, a tender personality, a playful spirit, and a soulful howl—that's Boone. He's the whole package wrapped up in a gorgeous brindle coat and those unforgettable blue eyes.

As part of Boone's $300 adoption fee, he will be neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.
