Meet Buddy, a charming young adult pup weighing in at 25 lbs., who’s eagerly searching for his forever home. This friendly fella loves being around people and other dogs. He’s been house trained and is quite content sleeping in his crate at night. Buddy enjoys walks on a leash and car rides, making him a great companion for adventures. In his foster home, Buddy thrives in a secure fenced-in yard, where he loves to play with toys and lounge on the grass while observing birds. His affectionate side shines through in the evenings when he curls up on his foster mom’s lap, earning him the title of her "weighted blanket." While he does have early arthritis in his front leg, it doesn’t hinder his zest for life. Keeping him at a healthy weight and following vet recommendations will ensure he stays happy and comfortable. Buddy is dog and cat friendly, and would thrive in a home with older, respectful children, if any. He’s a possible Jack Russell Terrier mix, about 1.5 years old. If you’re seeking a pint-sized comedian with a big heart, Buddy is ready to be your loyal sidekick. Ready to meet this lovable goof? Click apply to start the adoption process.
