Boss
8-year-old Male Mixed Breed

Well now, name’s Boss. Eight years on this earth, and I’ve seen a thing or two. Back in my day, dogs knew the value of a good long walk and a patch of grass to sniff, and by golly, I still do. Don’t let this old frame fool ya — I’ve got plenty of gas left in the tank. I’ll trot along with you just fine, though if I catch the scent of something real interesting, you best hang on tight.

I’ll admit, I’m a bit of a loudmouth in my kennel. Can’t stand being cooped up — it ruffles my fur. And these darn barriers? Make me crankier than a farmer without his morning coffee. But once you open things up, I settle down proper and show my gentlemanly side.

As for other dogs, I don’t mind ‘em if they mind themselves. Respectful, quiet types I can tolerate. But mealtime? Hah! Don’t even think about it. That bowl’s mine, and I guard it like the last slice of pie at Sunday supper. Feed me separate and we’ll get along just fine.

Now don’t go thinking I’m all grumble and no gumption. I can still be playful when the spirit moves me-toss me a toy and I’ll show you I’ve got some tricks left yet. And if you’ve got strong hands for a proper rump scratch, well, sonny, you’ll have yourself a friend for life.

So if you’re after a seasoned fella with some spunk, a little sass, and a whole lotta love, hitch up your britches and come meet me. The name’s Boss — and I reckon I’ll live up to it.
