Boogey is a fun and loving 2-year-old pup. He gets along famously with the resident dog and they can be found playing pretty much all day or stealing each other's toys or chews. Boogey is a medium-energy pup that loves his walks. He is a bit of a puller but doesn't seem to be bothered by other dogs, squirrels, or rabbits. He is untested with cats. He does have a bit of stranger danger and will bark at noises and unfamiliar things or people. He will need a backyard to zoom around in and explore. When he isn't playing he is resting preferably in your lap. He is a 65lb lap dog. He does need someone to be home most of the time and will do best in a home with a work-at-home schedule. He does well in very large kennels for short periods of time up to 4 hours, so running errands is not a problem. He does not do well in small kennels and will try to break out. We have not allowed him to explore the house unattended yet, as he is a strong and quick chewer. He is also almost house-trained but needs help with pee schedules until he learns the schedule of the home. He loves his food and chews and needs mental stimulation. He is very food-motivated, which should make for easy training. Although he only knows the command "sit" currently, I'm sure he will learn new commands in no time. He does have a tendency to jump up but is learning quickly that this behavior will not gain him attention. He is unsure of little children and fast movement and play are upsetting so will do best in a home with kids over 10 years old; potentially homes with kids over 8 years that are familiar with large dogs. Car rides can be a bit stressful and will resort to chewing so it is strongly recommended to travel in a crate without a leash or harness on or access anything that he can reach as he will chew. He does the nibble when he is looking to play and will nibble any part of your body but mainly your hands and feet. He loves stuffies and socks so these will need to be kept out of reach. Boogie is a huge snuggler and often looks for attention and doesn't like to be out of your sight.
