Rescue Me: Boris is A Goofball Who Needs A Home

LOUDOUN COUNTY, VA — Boris is a strong dog with a strong name. He has not been at the Loudoun County Animal Shelter for very long, but he has already won over the hearts of everyone he has met.

Boris is about three years old, and he has a gorgeous red coat. He was brought to the animal shelter on Tuesday, May 18, so there are some things that the animal shelter doesn't know about him.

"Boris came to us as a stray, and has been a big goof ball here," Loudoun County Animal Shelter staff wrote on his webpage. Boris seems to have some training though. "He loves treats and will quickly sit down for them," shelter staff said.

Boris is an adaptable pup who has found things to enjoy at the animal shelter. On Wednesday, Boris devised a plan to deal with the summer-like temperatures. "Boris dragged his favorite ball into the shade and is spending the afternoon lounging around, wagging his tail at everyone who walks by," the animal shelter wrote on Facebook.

Boris is a playful boy and would love to join a family who can match his energy.
