Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Buddy!
Buddy is a tan hound mix with a playful spirit and a curious nose. He’s an intelligent, obedient guy who already knows his basic commands and enjoys having structure in his day. One of his favorite things? Water. If there’s a splash to be had, Buddy is interested.
Buddy does best with someone who understands that not every dog is instantly perfect. He’s a special boy who benefits from a patient, calm owner who’s willing to give him time to settle in and continue learning. With consistency and clear guidance, Buddy shows how eager he is to do well and connect with his person.
He’s not a one-size-fits-all dog, but for the right home—one that values patience, routine, and gentle leadership—Buddy has the potential to be a loyal and rewarding companion.
