What's up dog?

Boomer is a 7 year old Tasmanian Smithfield x Border Collie. We adopted him from the RSPCA as an eight week old puppy in March, 2016. We operate a Tasmanian timber art gallery on our Tamar Valley property in Tasmania, which is open to the public 5 days a week. Boomer is our Guest Relations Manager and is crucial in meeting and greeting every visitor who arrives. He also lets us know someone is arriving, if we happen to be elsewhere on the property. He is much loved by all who meet him. Very friendly and loving. He is gentle with young children or elderly people.
He shares the house with four cats, who adore him and irritate him day and night. He has such a wonderful tolerance of them, even when they are forcing cuddles on him at all hours.
Our Sculptured Gallery has been open since November, 2018, and Boomer has never called in sick, is always at work on time and stays until the last customer has left and the gallery is closed. He is a crucial part of our business, and the most popular posts on social media, include Boomer. Our lives have been enriched since he became part of our family.

We believe that no dog should be left behind.
