Meet Buddy (Back With Us & Ready for a Fresh Start) Buddy is back at our shelter after a recent adoption due to no fault of his own. His previous adopter emphasized that Buddy does not like to be left alone and will chew on items when he is left by himself. This behavior is consistent with separation anxiety, and Buddy will need a home that can provide patience, structure, and support to help him feel safe and secure. In his previous home, Buddy lived with children and cats and did well with both. He has also shown that he can do well with other dogs. As always, if there is another dog in the home, a meet-and-greet is recommended to ensure a good match Buddy is a sweet, affectionate boy who truly thrives on companionship. Once he feels comfortable, his playful personality shines through, and he loves being close to his people. He would do best in a home that can offer plenty of physical activity, mental enrichment, and limited alone time as he continues building confidence and learning to be comfortable when separated. If you're looking for a loyal, loving companion and are willing to help Buddy work through his separation anxiety, he could be a wonderful addition to your family
