About Buddy

Meet Buddy, a sweet American Staffordshire Terrier who’s looking for a loving home after being left behind by his previous family. This resilient boy endured a tough time but has shown incredible strength. After being rescued, Buddy underwent surgery for entropion, a condition affecting his eyes, and has since made a fantastic recovery. Buddy is approximately 1 year old, weighs around 56 lbs, and has a short gray and white coat. He is crate trained and seems to be housebroken. He enjoys car rides and knows the sit command, though he’s still refining his leash skills; he can get excited when out and about and needs a strong handler to guide him. Despite his past, Buddy remains a friendly and loyal companion. He’s good with children but does not get along with cats. Now is his chance to find a forever home where he can thrive and experience love without fear of abandonment. If you think you can give Buddy the forever family he’s waited for, your application could be the first step in making that dream real. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let's get started.
