Meet Buddy. At just 2 years old and about 55 pounds, Buddy’s come a long way from when he was found starving and hiding under tree branches. Now, he soaks up the good things in life with a calm, balanced energy. Buddy enjoys hanging out with his dog friends (including two spirited heeler foster siblings), relaxing on a cozy bed, riding shotgun in the car, and stretching his legs in the yard before curling up indoors. He strikes a rare balance—playful when it’s time, but mostly an easygoing companion who finds comfort near his people. Crate trained and housebroken, Buddy knows how to settle in and adapt to his routine. Out in public, he’s confident and welcoming, comfortably mingling in crowds or meeting new dogs. Neutered, fully vaccinated, and ready to go, Buddy gets along well with other dogs and is searching for a person or family ready to offer the warm, steady home he deserves. Whoever brings him home will gain a devoted, loving friend for life. Click apply and let the tail-wagging begin!
