BUDDY - BR

Buddy is another one of S.P.O.T.’s rescues with a dramatic back story. (See HISTORY below.) While his past includes some challenges, what stands out most to those who meet him is his incredibly sweet and affectionate nature. Buddy’s personality is so good-natured and warm that his common black mutt appearance fades into the background.<br/>This boy is fun-loving and playful. He likes other dogs and loves to cuddle in his cozy beds. He’s not above twisting himself into a tight donut to fit into a much smaller dog bed than he needs if the big beds are already occupied, even if the occupant is a small K-9 diva.<br/>Buddy’s foster family thinks he is the perfect family dog. He’s happy, easy to have around, good with people, compliant, a bit of a clown, and very lovable! If you like the big dog presence but would prefer not to be obligated to intense daily exercise, this ‘buddy’ may be everything you’re looking for in a canine companion!<br/><br/>HISTORY<br/>Poor Buddy had a rough start to the summer. His owner brought him into the local pet emergency clinic to be euthanize after he encountered a porcupine! <br/><br/>If it's dog vs porcupine, the porcupine usually walks away uninjured - not so for the dog! Buddy got a face and chest full of quills.<br/><br/>The clinic thought he was too nice of a dog to euthanize him. They removed all the quills they could see then called S.P.O.T. to see if we would take him in. Buddy had several more procedures throughout the summer in our care which seems to have taken care of the rest of the quills.<br/><br/>He spent most of the summer with us at the SPOT house. During all of his vet visits and multiple procedures, Buddy was a gentle, happy boy who greeted everyone as a new friend. All summer, everyone who met him commented on his sweet nature!<br/><br/>His foster has also been impressed with how easily and well he fit in with the home pack of large and small dogs. He is a bit of a cat chaser but he responds well to a recall. <br/><br/>Buddy would love to find a home where not too much is expected of him. Where he can curl up on a big dog bed, snoot around the yard a while, pal around with another dog and play games with his people. He just wants to be the family pup to love and cuddle. What a guy!<br/><br/>Stats: Mixed breed - maybe black lab or Great Dane, sprinkled with some pointer and maybe a splash of terrier or even a little Doberman. A DNA would be fun to see. He's neutered, treated for internal parasites, fleas and is vaccinated. He has a microchip which we register to his adopter. Age: 5 years. Weight: 55-60 lbs Adoption fee: $350.00 (cash or credit card)<br/><br/>If interested in BUDDY, please go to our website, www.savingpetsoneatatime.org [https://www.savingpetsoneatatime.org/dog-adoption-form] to submit a dog adoption application. <br/><br/>Our pets are shown by appointment if the application reflects the desired home.<br/><br/>Thank you for considering a recue pet!
