Meet Buddy

Buddy is a good boy! He is a mutt through and through, with a DNA test showing he is a mix of several different breeds. He's just under 50 lbs.
Buddy was born to our rescue on 07/04/2020 and adopted out as a puppy. He was recently returned and it broke his heart. Buddy was adopted out to a home with other dogs and after a few years started not getting along with them so well. His dad's schedule changed and he was not home so much anymore, and Buddy just lost his way in the pack. When we were contacted about him being returned, in an effort to keep him in the only home he'd known for years, we sent a trainer to work with his family. Our trainer immediately knew Buddy wasn't dog aggressive, he simply lacked confidence and didn't know his place in the pack. We hoped the family would continue with training, but he was returned to us. It took him about 2 weeks to start coming out of his funk, he was shut down and depressed initially.
Buddy is not even close to being a difficult dog. He would absolutely benefit from taking a class to boost his confidence (which we will pay for with an approved adoption). People don't realize how much dogs need leadership and structure! That's all this sweet boy needs.
He's housebroken, knows basic commands, he's not destructive and he's fine being left alone, he enjoys playing with toys, overall he's pretty unassuming and what we would consider a low maintenance dog! He's neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, etc. His adoption fee is $250.
