Buddy

My story

Meet Buddy! This 1–2 year-old shepherd boy is as sweet as they come. He’s kid-friendly, dog-friendly, and absolutely loves running and playing in the fenced yard at his foster home. He also loves cuddling on the couch with his head in your lap. Buddy needs a mix of activity and relaxation (who doesn't?) and would do best with an adopter who can take him on hikes and long walks. After he's had the opportunity to burn some energy, Buddy is calm and quiet and brimming with joy, loyalty, and lots of tail wags for his forever family. If you can match this boy's capacity for love and happiness, please apply at www.peace4paws.org/adoption-application (use laptop or computer).If you have specific adoption or foster questions, please email: judy.atchison@yahoo.com THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN RESCUING A DOG!
