About Buster

Buster arrived at The Last Chance Ranch in July 2025, still waiting for his forever home after more than a year. Found as a stray, he was taken in by a caring elderly community member, but without a fenced yard, he spent his days outside on a cable. Fortunately, Buster remains resilient, maintaining his happy, goofy, and smiley disposition. He's incredibly affectionate and loves being around people. Buster is crate trained and housebroken, and he interacts well with other dogs after proper introductions. This lovable guy deserves so much more than kennel life—he needs a cozy couch, a loving family, and a place to truly call home. Thanks to the Part of the Pack promotion and Embark Vet, Buster is set to receive an Embark DNA test, and everyone is eager to discover the details of his breed mix. Stay tuned for those results! Sometimes, the best pets are the ones who wait the longest. Let’s make Buster’s next chapter begin with, "He's home."
