About Buddy

Buddy is a sweet boy who's spent nearly two years living at a car wash in DFW. He has watched cars come and go, meeting people and making friends along the way. But when the business closes, everyone leaves except him. At night, Buddy roams the streets alone, longing for a bed and a family to call his own. Buddy once had someone who cared for him deeply, but they are gone now, leaving this loyal pup behind. Despite everything, he remains hopeful, still waiting for someone to return for him. This dog-friendly companion loves to make new friends and deserves a loving home where he can be safe. He needs a secure yard with a six-foot fence, so he never has to wander the streets again. Buddy has shown so much resilience and loyalty; now it’s time for him to share that love with a person who truly cares. Please consider giving Buddy the life he’s been waiting for.
