About Bubu

Meet Bubu! This handsome German Shepherd tips the scales at 77 pounds and has a vibrant personality to match. At just 2 years old, Bubu unexpectedly found himself in a shelter, and while he’s now on the mend, he still needs a bit of guidance when it comes to socializing with other dogs. His previous home didn’t offer much of that, but here, we’re dedicated to helping him learn the skills he needs to thrive. Bubu is friendly with people, loves his squeaky toys, and possesses that classic German Shepherd energy. He's seeking a family that understands this wonderful breed and can provide him with the right environment. Ideally, his new home should have children aged 16 and older, and he would fit best as the only pet—no other dogs or cats for this fellow. Bubu has tremendous potential and is ready to become a loving companion. He just needs someone willing to look past his rough start and allow him to show how great he truly can be. Is that someone you? If you're interested in meeting Bubu, please remember that adoptions are by appointment only. Call the shelter for more details and to confirm availability.
