So far, Boomer has not had the most wonderful of lives. He was so neglected by a previous owner. the animal shelter that found him had to put 22 pounds on his emaciated body. As you can see in his picture, his ears are badly damaged, but Boomer thinks this just gives him character - his foster family agrees. His immune system was so compromised by lack of nutrition, Boomer is currently fighting a few illnesses, including a yeast infection on his skin. While these are only temporary and our vets tell us he will make a full recovery, it is very sad for us to see him so uncomfortable.

Boomer is about 8 years old. He's potty trained (amazing when you consider this is the first time he's probably ever been in a house) and gets along with the three other shepherds in his foster family. The highlight of Boomer's day is when his foster mom and sister get home. He gets off his bed and greets them at the door. The only things Boomer wants are good food and a warm bed. Will you open your home and heart to our dear, sweet boy?
