Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Buckley is everything but just a hound dog! While he does what most hounds do - follow his nose - he much rather play and play and play - with anyone and anything! This 45 pound, 1 year old boy is jovial and full of life!
Buckley was pulled from a high-kill shelter and it seems all he can think about is how HAPPY he is to be out of that situation and in a home where people feed him, love him, play with him, give him toys, exercise and a warm bed. Buckley is a high-energy young dog with puppy tendencies. He would benefit from someone who is active and willing to walk or jog with him consistently and/or play with him in a fenced in yard. Buckley needs some basic obedience training and needs to learn the rules of the house but again, what young dog doesn't? Buckley will likely do all of this and more with exuberance. Buckley is good with other dogs and loves all people. However, because of his bouncy nature, those teacup people may not appreciate his antics; but school-aged children, please apply. Buckley is house-trained and crate-trained.
If you are interested in Buckley, please have tennis balls ready and email erin.camp@bigfluffydogs.com and fill out an application (link below).
If you are interested in adopting this dog, please apply online, at http://www.bigfluffydogs.com/online-app.php. Our main website, www.bigfluffydogs.com has more information about us and the rescue process. NOTE TO EMAILERS FROM ADOPT-A-PET: WE DO NOT RESPOND TO EMAIL INQUIRIES WITHOUT AN APPLICATION. WE REGRET WE CANNOT RESPOND TO EVERY EMAIL, BUT UNLESS YOU FILL OUT AN APPLICATION, WE DO NOT KNOW YOU EXIST. All known information about an individual dog is provided in it's listing. We do our best to provide accurate information, but adopters must understand that each home is different and the dog may behave differently in a new home. Dogs are creatures of their environment and you help make the dog what it will be. Homes considering adopting a puppy must be prepared for:1.) Flexible schedules for potty training. Puppies can only "hold it" for one hour per month of age (ex. a 4 month old puppy can only go 4 hours without a potty break).2.) Crate training until the puppy is at least one year old, to prevent chewing on inappropriate things when you can't supervise.3.) Socialization: The more positive and varying experiences as a puppy the better, both in and out of your home.4.) Puppy behavior and life stages are equivalent to a human toddler. It takes at least a full year to have a calmer, well adjusted dog. Patience is required and when your dog's behavior is a positive experience for you and those around you, your patience will be rewarded tenfold, for years to come.Please do not consider adopting a puppy if you have not thoroughly thought through the pros and cons of having one. So many people end up returning them after 3-5 months because they didn't realize the amount of work involved in raising a puppy.Patience, appropriate toys, socialization, and obedience training are all musts. All are time consuming, and can be expensive.All Dogs Require:Supervision with children and obedience training. Adopters that want to have good dogs must be prepared to put the time and effort into training a dog. Any dog requires work and effort, but a well trained, well socialized dog is more than worth the effort put in to get them there.
