Meet the wonderful dog named Big Buddy! 🎉 This lovable soul found his way to the shelter as a stray, and let’s just say, he could have used a little more than just a bath to scrub off those prior adventures! 🚿 While he may have been a bit stinky, the sweet people who rescued him quickly realized he's got a heart of gold just waiting to shine! 🌟 Now, Big Buddy is a bit shy when it comes to cars and stairs, but don’t let that fool you! With a gentle lift, he’s ready to be scooped up and carried to his next grand adventure! Just imagine having such a big, fluffy companion by your side—there’s never a dull moment! 🐾 Big Buddy adores playing and exploring the great outdoors, but let’s keep things in check, folks! He’s had a previous canine companion and gets along well, but he’ll need some slow, monitored introductions to any other furry friends in your home. As for cats? That remains a mystery! 🐶😺 Now, let’s talk about heartworms. Yes, Big Buddy is currently heartworm positive, but don’t you fret! The amazing folks at OCAS are on it—they’ll cover the cost of his treatment! This disease, often spread by mosquito bites, can lead to severe issues if left untreated, so it’s crucial he gets the care he deserves! 💖 Big Buddy is not just a dog; he’s a spirit waiting to bring warmth, laughter, and companionship into your life. So, are you ready to give this sweet gentle giant a forever home? If so, *apply through the Buddy App* to make Big Buddy your new best friend! He’s waiting for you!
