PET OF THE WEEK: Meet Boomer, a rescue dog who loves toys

Humane Society of West Alabama: 

Boomer is a 1-year-old Lab/retriever/Newfie mix who weighs in at a comfortable 56 pounds. This guy was rescued after being picked up as a stray, and he's a happy-go-lucky, energetic guy. He loves attention, pets, people and toys, and would make an excellent exercise buddy.

He'd be a great dog for families with older children and has done well with other dogs, but he's not fond of cats. He's been started on crate training, is up to date on vet care and is heartworm negative.
