This is cute, tiny little Buddy! He is adorable! Buddy was rescued from a shelter on 2-17-12. He arrived weighing in at 12.9 pounds big. Buddy is approx. two years old. He is a friendly little guy whom is fostered with other dogs and a child. His prior foster has told us that he is house-trained. We will update accordingly when we determine that ourselves. Buddy seems to get along well with the dogs in the foster home. So far, he does not jump in to play with the dogs but he has only been here a very short time thus far. UPDATE: Buddy is a lively little guy; he's adjusting to my two dogs and will play with them thru out the day but it seems when he is seeking attention from me, and they try to intervene, he can get a little bossy with my dogs. He has been great with people. He enjoys running laps around the yard and likes playing with the toys. He is a good boy and is a love bug. When he wants to play he barks. He sleeps well in the crate. Knows the command "sit". UPDATE: He is very playful. He will playfully grab a blanket if you are moving it. He also loves to play with the dog toys. He is still settling into the foster home. He gets excited when you pet him and does a lot of rolling around on his back and side like a puppy. He walks well on the leash. UPDATE: He's adjusting well. He is a very playful pup. He has now started to snuggle with my uncle whom has been staying with us. His undercoat is matted and I think he could use a visit to the groomer. Buddy will need to be groomed regularly. The medical care he has had is : vet exam, microchipped, rabie shot, neutered, two vaccinations, a negative heartworm test, and dewormed. More information regarding medical can be explained upon receipt of an approved application. Additional photos of Buddy can be seen on our Facebook page by friending Sheryl's Den on Facebook. As we get to know this boy better, we will update this description. Please note, if you are interested in adopting this boy, please complete an application for adoption.
This animal is currently fostered in a private home. Our rescue is 100% foster home based. We do not have a shelter or kennel. They are cared for by a loving family until adopted. Each pup has had their first vet exam, a shot, and de-worming, etc We make sure they have no fleas prior to going into our foster homes. They are fostered out of the shelter at least two weeks or more prior to adopting to monitor health. We take their care seriously!
Please note that the adoption appointments will be scheduled for the morning of Feb 19th. After your application is approved, we will contact you and arrange for you to meet on that date. Once adopted, feel free to change the dog's name. You do not have to keep the name listed in this post.
#####PLEASE BE SURE YOUR APPLICATION IS COMPLETE OR IT WILL NOT BE PROCESSED. PLEASE BE SURE TO LIST THE NAME AND NUMBER OF THE VET'S OFFICE THAT CARED FOR YOUR PRIOR OR CURRENT PET. #####
