Boofelsnoot is Poplarville Dental Clinic 's resident Therapy Dog. A rescue from the Hancock County SPCA, Boofelsnoot was adopted in 2016 by Dr. Estep and his family. He is a registered therapy dog who routinely assists with children, special needs patients, and fearful patients. His love of snuggles and belly rubs, coupled with his friendly attitude make Boofelsnoot the perfect companion for anyone who might need a little extra attention in our office. Look for him at the Front Desk, where he can routinely be found begging for snacks and investigating the age old question of, 'Who 's a good boy?' (We already know it 's him!)
