About Uncle Buddy

Uncle Buddy is ready to make your armchair his throne! This charming boy thoroughly enjoys curling up in a comfy spot, spending most of his time lounging unless it's time for a walk, to go potty, or grab some lunch. Interestingly, he prefers to hop on three legs, a quirky habit stemming from a past injury that required the removal of a mass. Rest assured, he's not in pain; it just adds to his adorable personality. Despite his couch potato demeanor, Uncle Buddy has a playful side and isn't shy about voicing his wants, especially when he’s ready to settle back into his chair. He’s a delightful mix, exhibiting poodle-like traits but showing a bit of terrier when you look closely. His fluffy white coat is quite unique, being neither curly nor coarse, and possibly even part-sheep! Good with both dogs and the resident cat, he benefits from a slow introduction to new pals. He’s on a kidney support diet and takes medication for a previous infection. Think Uncle Buddy is the right match for you? Fill out an application, and we’ll get back to you shortly.
