About Buoy

Meet Buoy! This little darling is just 14 weeks old and is full of personality, all wrapped up in a small, grey-and-white coat. You wouldn’t believe the bounce in her step when she zips around the room like a tiny, furry bullet. Buoy has come a long way since her arrival; she faced serious challenges as the runt of her litter, needing round-the-clock care and a lot of encouragement to thrive. But look at her now—healthy and playful, ready to find her forever family. Buoy will be spayed, microchipped, and fully vaccinated before she goes home. If you're interested in Buoy, give us a call at 630-553-3400 to schedule a time to meet her!
