About Buddy

Buddy is an 8-month-old neutered male English Cream Golden Retriever looking for his forever home. He's known for being smart, friendly, and playful, although he remains calm most of the time. Buddy already knows several commands like Sit, Backup, Down, and is getting the hang of Stay. He has interacted with a 10-year-old child and has lived with other dogs but has yet to meet any cats. Being an active boy, he thrives in an energetic environment and would do best with a family that has space for him to play and another dog for companionship. Special care is needed around rocks, as he finds them intriguing and can pick them up in his mouth. Given his size, supervision is also crucial around small children and elderly individuals. Buddy is house trained and eager to bring joy to a loving family. If you think Buddy could be the right fit for you, let's get started on the adoption process!
