Hi, I’m Buddy

Meet Buddy - Big, Goofy, and Full of Love!

Buddy is a big, playful lad with a goofy charm and a heart as big as he is! He's eager to please, knows sit and lie down, and loves learning - especially when treats are involved.

Buddy can be unsure in new environments and needs a patient, confident owner to help him settle. He's strong lad and can pull on lead, so ongoing training with positive reinforcement is essential. His arousal can spike when overwhelmed, so calm handling and impulse control work will help him thrive.

He may need fear-free vet visits and possibly medication for handling stress. Solid 6ft fencing is recommended, and someone home more often than not will make him happiest, especially during the first few days to help him settle and gradually build confidence being alone.

Teens and older kids only, and they should be part of his training.

Buddy has lived with another dog and enjoys social dogs, but he's best matched with a calm companion. He's clever too-he can open screen doors, so a little management is needed!

If you're ready for a loyal, loving, goofy best friend who will reward your patience with endless affection. He's ready to start his next chapter with someone who understands his needs and will celebrate his big heart every step of the way!
