My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Introducing: Bucky, the gentle giant with a heart of gold. Bucky earned the adorable nickname "Buddy" not just because it rolls off the tongue with a sweet ring, but because this lovable furball has an uncanny knack for turning every moment into a buddy-bonding experience. At about 75 lbs and 7 years young, Buddy embodies the perfect blend of maturity and youthful exuberance. When it's playtime, he taps into his inner puppy, showcasing a boundless enthusiasm for his beloved toys.

Currently, Buddy is being fostered. Fortunately, that gives us an inside look at his daily routine; which includes leisurely walks, laps around the yard when excitement strikes, and his favorite pastime—finding the perfect sun-soaked spots throughout the house. Despite his imposing size, he's convinced he's a 15lb lap dog, making for amusing moments as he snuggles in for some quality cuddle time.

As a true well-mannered friend and companion, Buddy has never shown a hint of aggression, even when it comes to sharing his food or toys. His relationship with his feline foster sibling is a testament to his adaptability letting his gentle nature shine through, demonstrating a healthy respect for his purring housemate. However, having faced challenges with some larger canine counterparts in the past, he now prefers the company of smaller dogs, navigating playdates with charm and grace. His interactions with kids are held with a gentle demeanor, though he understands the importance of maintaining a respectful distance. With a personality as warm as his fur, Buddy enjoys tender petting from the little ones with patience and affection.

While his enthusiasm may briefly overshadow his manners when guests arrive, Bucky's excitement quickly settles into a warm, welcoming demeanor. It takes him just 10 to 15 minutes to transition from exuberant greetings to a more relaxed, sociable state, proving that beneath the initial burst of energy lies a well-behaved and loving canine companion. In Bucky, you'll find a loyal friend who embodies the perfect balance of playfulness, gentleness, and unwavering affection.
