About Buddy

Meet Buddy! This handsome young dog recently arrived at our shelter from another location, and we're just beginning to know him. Found as a stray, his background remains a bit of a mystery, but we do know he gets along well with other dogs, particularly those that are gentle enough to respect his space. One thing is clear: Buddy is a total foodie and is more than willing to learn new tricks for a tasty treat. This eagerness to please makes him an ideal candidate for training. If you're thinking about adding a new member to your family, Buddy is currently available for adoption and foster care. He can't wait to meet you! Feel free to drop by our Adoption Center in Chicago, or reach out to us if you're interested in fostering. Getting Buddy into a loving home is our priority, and we offer same-day adoptions with free parking. Every step of the adoption or foster process is guided by our dedicated team. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
