My story

Meet Bucky – Your Loyal, Loving Tripod Companion! 🐾 For Foster or Adoption! Bucky is the biggest sweetheart with an even bigger heart. A true survivor, Bucky is a recent amputee who’s currently healing from both the loss of a leg and a tough past. But don’t let that fool you—he’s incredibly affectionate, gentle, and just wants to be your shadow. This three-legged lovebug is calm, well-mannered, and happiest cuddling at your side or giving soft, slobbery kisses. 🐶💛 He’s a velcro dog through and through—if you're moving, he’s following. 🐕‍🦺 What Makes Bucky So Special? * Non-reactive to other dogs his size * NO cats or small dogs, please (high prey drive) * Very quiet – not a barker, at all! * Potty-trained * Walks beautifully on leash and redirects easily with treats * LOVES food and takes treats so gently * Enjoys car rides and watching the world roll by * Playful, but tires quickly – currently heartworm positive and recovering from surgery * Destroyer of plush toys, but lover of tough chew toys * Easily trainable – smart, eager, and a total people-pleaser 🩺 Medical Needs Bucky is heartworm positive and a recent amputee, so he needs a calm, supportive home where he can rest, recover, and be monitored to make sure he doesn’t overdo it (he wants to keep going even when he’s tuckered out!). 🙏 FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED! Bucky hates spending his life in a kennel environment, and needs a soft bed, gentle hands, and a calm home to heal. All medical and basic supplies will be covered if you open your home to him as a foster while he recovers. Bucky needs loving, forever home, and at 7 years old, this angel will reward his family with love, cuddles and never ending joy! 💛 If you can't adopt, please consider fostering. He needs a place to rest, recover and be loved.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Bucky, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
