Buddy

My story

MEET BUDDY! +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 'Buddy has been such a good houseguest. He likes his kennel and enjoys watching sitcoms.' 'Buddy loves to play and has given our old dogs some good exercise.' Buddy is your bud if you are looking for a cool, fun dog to take on adventures or hang out on quiet evenings channel surfing. He is up or whatever you have planned! Background: Buddy is another Houston casualty of an irresponsible owner. He was found tangled up in a gas meter by his anchor wire still attached to his collar. It was his good fortune to be found across the street from his foster mom and dad who are dog lovers. Buddy was severely malnourished and had some skin issues just beginning. Despite his condition, he has maintained a sweet and happy demeanor and has been a good houseguest. Personality: Buddy is a well mannered dog who enjoys meeting and being around people. He is respectful and will not jump on you. He really enjoys his walks, which help to expend some of his young energy, and walks well. Buddy is a medium on the energy scale. Buddy is now in a home with several other dogs and has done fabulously. He wants to play with other dogs and would do well with another balanced, playful dog. Buddy is very smart and food motivated so training him would be very easy. He is already very responsive to recall and some commands such as place and kennel. Health: Buddy has been semi-raw fed with skin supplements which have really boosted his health. His skin issues have resolved and he has a beautiful glossy red coat. Buddy has been neutered, is HW negative, UTD on vaccines and ready to find a home. Home: Buddy would do well in a home with another playful, balanced dog. He would enjoy playing with older children in the home but we would not put him in a home with small children because of his energy level. He would do well as a running companion or going on an early morning bike ride. Buddy is a young boy and needs daily exercise to be a good companion. If you love the breed and are looking for a good companion dog for yourself or a friend for your dog, this is your guy. Buddy is a gem!
