About Buddy

Buddy is a 2-year-old mixed breed dog ready to find his forever home. This friendly boy weighs around 63 pounds and is in great shape after a tough start in life. He walks well on a leash, is house-trained, and knows basic commands. With a heart full of affection, Buddy enjoys playtime, especially games of tug of war, and he loves to be close to his people—he'll happily be your lap dog if you allow him to! He’s neutered and up to date on vaccinations, and he thrives on companionship. Buddy does well with kids and other dogs, and he’s even showed a respectful curiosity around cats. Ideally, he would love a home where he won't be left alone for long periods and where he can receive regular exercise and love. A fenced yard and a friendly playmate would be a plus, but they're not essential. To learn more or to adopt, please reach out to Alicia at alr4317@gmail.com. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
