  Boomer's Story

  
  Mouse over image to ZOOM!

  Boomer. Mr. Boomer is a thoughtful and easy-going little prince. He is a Basset Hound.

  
  He is completely adorable. He adores destroying toys and is scared of hammocks. Boomer is a totally committed playmate to humans (even though he sometimes snores a little loudly).
  

  Unfortunately, Boomer was found living in an abandoned house,Boomer was abandoned at the shelter in the middle of the night. Boomer now lives with the other Shelter Pups while waiting for a nice human to love him.

  The past doesn't matter to Boomer. He's ready to start a new life in a new home, right now! Boomer is a super low energy dog. Boomer's laid-back, easy-going attitude makes him the perfect adoptable friend for low energy families. Boomer can be a slow learner and he'll be best in a home where he can have and owner who does not mind a little stubbornness.
  
  He is basically house broken, but will have accidents if left alone for too long.

  Things You Should Know
  Before Adopting Boomer

  
  Boomer is a super low energy Basset Hound. Be prepared for some serious laziness. Also, each dog breed has certain traits. Knowing a little bit about your pup's individual personality and breed personality will give you some clues about how to care for your pup.
  
  There's a lot of Basset Hound in this Shelter Pup!
  
  Friendliness: A Basset Hound will fit nicely into your life with it's sweet, gentle, devoted, peaceful and naturally well-behaved personality. Their amazing nose allows them to follow almost any trail. Don't be surprised if they would rather track a new smell then play fetch.
  
  Grooming: The Basset Hound's short sleek coat is very easy to maintain and only requires an occasional grooming. Their extra long ears are prone to infection and must be cleaned on a regular basis.
  
  Exercise: Basset Hounds love to run and play. They may look slow and clumsy but Basset Hounds require long daily walks to stay in top shape. Because of their short legs and long backs it is important to prevent them from straining their legs or jumping to much.
