Boomer, beagle mix

Boomer is a darling male beagle puppy in the care of Second Chance Dog Rescue.

Boomer gets along well with other dogs. He is vaccinated. Fear not: He's already house-trained.

Here's what Boomer's friends at Second Chance Dog Rescue think of him:

He is shy at first, but warms up quickly. He loves human company and gets along well with dogs of all sizes. Wherever his foster mother is, there he will be. He sleeps through the night in the arms of his foster mom. He loves to play while off the leash at the dog beach, and does not run off. He also likes riding in the car. Boomer will do best in a home where there is a human companion all day.
