Boomer
Character
A Boomer isn't actually a breed, but a cross between several small dog breeds. This allows them to vary greatly in appearance and temperament. Their exact personality depends heavily on the crossbreed used, and of course, each dog also has its own temperament. Generally speaking, however, they're playful, energetic dogs that enjoy human attention and can also be somewhat headstrong. If it's a crossbreed with a Lhasa Apso or a Shih Tzu , the Boomer can be a bit reserved or wary of strangers. Crossbreeds with a Yorkshire Terrier, on the other hand, can be particularly feisty and overconfident, displaying a pronounced prey instinct. Like many other dogs, a Boomer gets along quite well with children if properly socialized. It's important that children treat the animal with respect. At Felicanis, puppies are born in a calm environment and are well cared for, so they can grow up healthy and with a stable temperament. With a consistent and responsible owner, they're sure to have a happy life.
Appearance
Naturally, the Boomer's appearance also depends greatly on the breeds used in the breeding process. Generally, these are smaller dogs with a medium-length, wavy, or (moderately) curly coat. Wire-haired Boomers also exist. These dogs are generally longer than they are tall and have relatively short legs. They also usually have a short nose and drooping ears. Their weight varies between 4 and 10 kg, and they grow to a height of about 20 to 30 cm. Felicanis adheres to animal welfare guidelines and the general regulations of the Flemish government for dog breeding during breeding.
Other details
Just like with any other dog, it's important to properly socialize a Boomer. From 3 weeks old, it's essential to regularly expose your puppy to change and introduce them to new situations, people, and environments. At Felicanis, we place great importance on this. Boomers are generally intelligent dogs that learn new things quite quickly. Clear and consistent training with plenty of focus on rewarding desired behavior will certainly pay off. It's also best to get your Boomer used to typical grooming routines like brushing their teeth, checking their ears and nails, and brushing their coat. Also, be careful with too many treats and give your Boomer plenty of exercise to prevent them from getting too fat. If they do, they can easily reach an age of between 12 and 15 years.
