My personality

My story

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

Bucky is a 2-year-old male pup that is a shelter favorite due to his friendly and loving nature. He came in as a stray on February 28, 2025, and is awaiting his "gotcha day" when he can finally go home with his forever family. Bucky is athletic and has a lot of energy, and would benefit from a home with a fenced-in yard so he can run around and play. While he is a good-sized pup, he is incredibly affectionate and loves to cuddle and be loved. He can be a bit curious and will sniff everything in sight, but this charming and playful pup is sure to bring laughter and joy to your home. Bucky has made a friend at the shelter, and they love to play together. A good game of chase is super fun for them. Bucky's got incredibly sweet and has no problem making new friends. If you are interested in adopting Bucky, please come visit him at the shelter!
If you have another dog and are interested in meeting another potential new furry member please bring him or her to the shelter and meet on neutral ground before adopting. No need to shuffle the animals around any more than necessary. Please know that 1 mosquito bite can create heart worms and they can be fatal if not treated. It is VERY important to keep your pets healthy and protected by keeping them on a once a month heart worm and flea/tick prevention. These animals are counting on you as their owner to provide them with lots a love and the proper health care so PLEASE make sure you are aware and prepared before adopting. Owning a pet is an extra expense and responsibility but is so worth every minute and penny you invest in them. They will add lots of joy and unconditional love if given a fair chance.
The shelter is open Mon.-Fri. 10-1, 2-5, Sat. 10-4. Adopt a homeless pet and save a life. If you can not adopt right now come out and volunteer and make a difference in the lives of these animals while they await their FOREVER home.
In order to adopt any of our "bully breeds" there is special paper work that will need to be collected and approved prior to the adoption. We love all of our dogs and want to make sure to place our "bully babies" in homes best suited for them.
