🌟 Meet Buddy! This adorable love bug is a 3-year-old Lab mix, tipping the scales at a delightful 45 pounds! Buddy's backstory is nothing short of a heartwarming tale of survival. He was found wandering as a stray, living in a rural dog pound where the pups had to brave the elements in outdoor kennels. Just before a fierce ice storm swept in, a kind-hearted hero came to his rescue. Buddy was the last dog standing, and thanks to a wonderful foster, he has found safety and warmth! Buddy has truly blossomed in his foster home, making fast friends with everyone—both human and furry! Just check out the adorable snapshot with his new dog buddy, Sky! 🐶💖 With an insatiable love for cuddles, treats, and chew toys (yes, you can never have enough chew toys), he spends his days frolicking and running in a fenced yard with his dog pals. This charming fellow is already crate trained, housebroken, and knows a few basic commands. He’s also working hard on his leash skills and is described by his foster mom as sweet and gentle. "Buddy is the perfect size, the perfect age, the perfect energy... He is just perfect," she says, and honestly? Who can argue with that?! 🥰 Currently, Buddy is nestled safe in his foster home down South and, regrettably, not available to meet in person just yet. But if this lovable pup sounds like he could be the light in your life, don’t wait to jump on this opportunity! Adoption is only a 'Buddy App' away!
