About Buddy

Meet Buddy, a 7-month-old puppy currently fostered in Sadler, TX. This playful and athletic guy loves food, zoomies, and playing with his dog friends. He’s the kind of pup who keeps you company, whether you're working in the workshop or taking a shower—he'll be right there beside you on the cool tile. Buddy lives harmoniously with four other dogs of varying temperaments and has quickly adapted to their routines. He’s responsive to direction and easily entertains himself with rope toys and Kongs. With his elegant black-and-white tuxedo markings, Buddy is not just charming but also housetrained, as long as he has access to the yard. Although he doesn't currently live with kids or cats, he has a good track record with them—often being walked by children and respecting cats in the home. Crate-trained, he sleeps and eats in his crate, though he’d prefer to be closer to his humans. It’s clear that Buddy has a lot of love to give and a wonderful personality to match. Make Buddy a part of your family today!
