Meet Buddy! Buddy is a Mini Poodle mix who operates in two modes: "Please don't perceive me" and "You are now my emotional support human." He’s a bit of a character when you first meet him, cautiously sizing you up before deciding if you make the cut. A little patience goes a long way with Buddy. With some tasty treats and an understanding of his need for space, you’ll soon find him following you around like he’s known you forever. Once he feels secure, Buddy transforms into a sweet, affectionate companion who adores being around his people. He believes that friendships should be earned, preferably with snacks involved. His fluffy charm does require some upkeep. Regular professional grooming is essential to keep his coat looking healthy and free of tangles. To Buddy, spa days are simply part of his job description. If you’re searching for a delightful buddy with a heart of gold, Buddy is ready to swap his cautious side-eye for a lifetime of love and tail wags. Buddy does get along with dogs with a proper meet and greet but we recommend checking compatibility with kids and cats too. Celebrate Buddy's unique personality and make your home a little brighter!
