Description:
Meet Boo the lover girl, a darling 2-year-old cattle dog mix. Background: Sweet Boo was found as a stray after being struck by a car. Despite her injuries, her gentle nature shone through, and shelter staff knew she was worth every effort. They invested in surgery to start her healing journey, and Boo underwent an FHO procedure. Since then, she has been recovering beautifully in a loving foster home. Personality: Boo is a sweetheart through and through—affectionate, gentle, and eager to please. Weighing in at 40 lbs doesn’t stop her from being a lap dog. She adores people of all ages and gets along with dogs of every size. Health: Boo is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. She underwent her FHO surgery on 10/30/25 and is progressing right on schedule. While dogs who receive an FHO may develop a quirky gait, Boo is expected to live a full, happy life filled with long walks, playful romps, and plenty of adventures. To support her long-term mobility, it’s important that Boo stays lean. Keeping her weight down will help protect her joints and ensure she continues to thrive. Training: Boo is housebroken, crate-trained, and has excellent leash manners, making her an easy addition to any household. Ideal Home: This laid-back gal is happiest simply being near her people, especially if snuggles are involved. Boo would thrive in almost any loving home where companionship and affection are part of daily life. She would likely do well with children, making her a wonderful family dog. Adoption Requirements: Boo’s adoption fee is $350. If you live in the Phoenix metro area and think she could be the right fit for you, please complete an adoption application*: helpadogsmile.org/adoption-application *Please note that the application is not a commitment to adopt–it is a tool used to help determine if a dog and applicant would make a good match. Applications are forwarded to the foster family for review and follow-up.
