More About Buddy-URGENT

Buddy is one of those heartbreaking stories that we are hearing more often every day. Sadly, his owner has suffered a foreclosure and he cannot take his dogs with him to the place he must now move to. Toby and Buddy have been with him nearly all their lives and must now try to find new homes. Buddy is a 45 lb. beauty that is alert and attentive and watches you closely with every move you make. He is very people friendly , dog friendly and doesn' t give a hoot about cats. He walks like a dream and let us trim huge mats of hair off of him the first time we met him. A beautiful dog that 10 years old, but acts half of that. Active and sweet he deserves better than what he has now.


The adoption donation is $125.00 which helps cover some of the care and veterinary services provided, including spay for females, neuter for males, vaccinations, de-worming and heartworm testing when age appropriate.


The adoption process begins with an application, which is a tool the Franklin County Humane Society uses to make a good forever home match. PLEASE-- NO PHONE CALLS -- YOUR CALL CANNOT BE RETURNED. **EMAIL ONLY TO: sylviaam4@aol.com and we'll send you an application and/or answer any questions you might have.
