Boston (Jenna Rescue) - Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Austin, Texas

Meet Boston!

Boston is about a year old, around 40 pounds, and is basically a sweet, cuddly puppy in a slightly bigger body. He loves to run, play, be silly, and then come right back over for all the love and attention he can get.

Boston has already been through quite a bit in his short life after being hit by a car and breaking his leg, but he’s come such a long way and is finally getting to enjoy being a normal, playful young dog again.

He does well with other dogs after proper introductions, is kid-friendly, crate trained, potty trained, leash trained and is a quick learner. As for cats... Boston thinks they look a little too much like tiny moving chase toys, so a cat-free home would probably be best.

He still has some puppy habits — including occasionally thinking things are chew toys that absolutely are not — but he’s eager to learn and just needs someone willing to keep showing him the ropes.

Boston is playful, affectionate, goofy, and happiest when he gets to be part of whatever his people are doing. He’s ready for a family that will give him plenty of playtime, patience, cuddles, and the chance to keep becoming the amazing dog we already know he is.
