Buddy is a gentle soul looking for a special person to call his "best friend." At just six months old, he’s in that adorable puppy stage, but he’s a bit more of a wallflower than a party animal. While he might be a little shy when he first meets you, once he knows he’s safe, his true colors shine through. He is incredibly affectionate and lives for quiet chin scratches and leaning against your legs for reassurance. Buddy is looking for a patient, committed owner who understands that the best bonds take a little time to build. He’s a "quality over quantity" kind of guy—he doesn’t need a crowd, just one or two people he can trust completely. Since he’s still a puppy, he’ll need someone dedicated to continuing his training and helping him find his confidence in the big wide world. Buddy is dog-friendly! Having a confident canine sibling in the home might actually help him come out of his shell. We haven’t tested him with feline friends yet, so a slow, supervised introduction would be best. If you’re ready for a best friend forever, Buddy is waiting to meet you!
