My name is Buddy!

We were given Buddy by my brother-in-law's neighbor when he was 8 weeks old. He is now large, strong, and very energetic; he is 17 months old. He received training when he was about 6-7 months, however because we could not continue to work with him due to our health and age, he has forgotten some of it. Thus he has been an outside dog since he was about 9 months old. He does understand and obey the "sit and stay" commands when we let him in at night to sleep in his crate; he loves going for walks but pulls quite a lot which we cannot handle. He of course jumps on people and does not obey the NO command. He is lovable but needs a lot of structure and attention. He was good with our two grandkids but we stopped letting them near him because he is so rough. While we love him we cannot keep him anymore and hope somehow he can go to a good home with people who can give him the structure and attention he needs.
