About Buddy

Buddy is a remarkable dog looking for a loving home after a challenging life. For nearly two years, he has resided at a car wash in DFW, where he watches cars pass by and meets new friends, yet at the end of each day, he is left on his own. This gentle boy deserves better; he spent nights alone, longing for companionship he once had. Buddy, a medium-sized dog, is around 7 years and 6 months old, and his loyalty is unmatched. He gets along well with other dogs and has a sweet, affectionate demeanor. Now he’s ready for a family—someone who will cherish him as he deserves. A secure home with a 6-foot fence will ensure he never experiences the streets again. Buddy just wants a person to love and give his loyalty to. Let’s help Buddy find the home he’s been patiently waiting for. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
