Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

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


Buddy and I became friends through his previous owner, Cody, when they moved next door. They do not have a fenced yard and Buddy was kept on a 4 ft chain 24/7. I talked to Buddy everyday. Eventually asked Cody to introduce us and learned Cody did not have the means to build a fence or dog run for Buddy. Cody also said he did not have the time to spend with Buddy and was looking for someone to take him. I have a dog run with large insulated dog house and offered to house Buddy, vet him and help find him a loving home. In truth, I hoped Buddy would fit into my family of fur babies but soon learned that would not be the case. As lovable as Buddy is to me, he killed one of my cats. Buddy loves treats and loves pets and belly rubs. I work with him as much as my schedule allows on leash training but still pulls very hard. I invested in a harness recommended by my vet which has helped a lot. Buddy rides very well in the car. He is UTD on shots and will be neutered Dec 10th.
