Buddy is a friendly boy who truly enjoys attention and being near his people. He’ll happily follow you around like your faithful companion and would love nothing more than to be part of your daily routine. He also does great with other dogs and gets along well with the dogs in his foster home.

A Fun Little Quirk (and it’s adorable!)
Buddy has a hilarious habit—when it’s time to go outside, he must bring a toy with him. He’ll grab a chew or soft toy and proudly carry it out (antlers are his favorite!). He loves toys so much and can entertain himself like a champ.

Buddy has a wonderful temperament and an easygoing, family-friendly vibe. He’s affectionate, gentle, and has a BIG heart. He’s also smart and has already learned “sit,” and because he’s food motivated, training is a breeze. Buddy is the kind of dog who wants to do well and make you proud.

He would love a home where he can enjoy walks, hikes, and relaxed family time—then settle in for some well-deserved snuggles and quiet companionship. If you’re looking for a handsome, loyal senior who always seems to have a smile on his face, Buddy could be your perfect match. Adoption fee is $250

Buddy is ready for a family to call his own. 💛🐶
