Buddy's Story
Hi, I'm Buddy! I'm a big, handsome guy at about 80 pounds. My current friends think I'm most likely a GSD/Malinois combo. I'm not one of those crazy energy types but I do have energy to burn and will need regular walks, play, adventures and car rides, I love car rides. I walk fairly well on leash, but I do pull pretty hard at times, especially when I need to smell that perfect treeI'm working on it!<br/><br/>I'm a friendly boy but not overly with strangers. I like my people and if they say you are ok then I might say hello. I AM a GSD after all, right? I was fine at the vet, getting my ears cleaned and just a general check up. I admit, I would prefer a gentle but confident leadersomeone who can guide me firmly without being too harsh. I'm a big, active boy but I am also kind of sensitive. <br/><br/>I get along well with neutral dogs and enjoy their company, but if another dog comes at me barking or with too much energy, I might react (I do stop when asked though). I'm also a TOTAL squirrel fiendchasing them is my favorite sport! That said, I'm definitely not a cat or small critter guy!<br/><br/>I'm a smart boy and already know sit, down, shake, and wait (even though waiting is tough for me). I'll happily jump up on whatever you ask, I ride great in the car, and I mostly ignore people and other dogs when out walking. My recall still needs work, but don't worryI'm not a runner.<br/><br/>What I really want is to bond deeply with my person or family. I'll be loyal and devoted, and the bestest boy. It's important that my new family helps me learn and likes to train smart dogs. I'll be the best companion you could ask for.<br/><br/>Are you the experienced shepherd and/or malinois person I'm waiting for?<br/><br/>You like this dog...now what?
