About Bud
Bud spent his early life shut away in a shed, the product of a hoarding environment, but he never lost his spark. Now about a year old and weighing just under 10 pounds, heās the definition of a small dog with a huge personality. While his breed mix is up for debateāhis foster mom suspects terrier, the vet leans toward Yorkieāeveryone agrees Bud is one of a kind. Heās a true clown, full of puppy energy and always ready to play, whether it's solo or with dogs of any size. When he gets going, Bud zooms around like a rabbit, keeping everyone entertained. After playtime, he loves to settle down for a quiet nap near his people, showing his affectionate, cuddly side. Bud knows his manners: heās house trained, walks well on a leash, and does great on car rides (though he sometimes gets car sick). Heās learning crate routines and still perfecting his recallābaby gates present a fun challenge for him, as his jumping ability is remarkable. A securely fenced yard is not optional for Bud; heās quick on his feet and adventurous, so adopters should be ready to keep him safe. He gets along with other dogs and children, though his lively style means heās best matched with kids seven and up. Bud needs a family willing to laugh with him, support his progress, and give him the stable, loving home heās never known. Heās come a long wayāhe deserves the good part of his story.
