Need a Buddy? This guy started his tenure with us playing Frogger in Union City in January. Lucky for him, our outreach van was out and about, and up he was scooped. When no one came calling to claim this handsome dude, to our adoption center he went. So here he is - waiting. He's sweet as pie, loves to snuggle, learns tricks and words faster than you can teach em, and adores long walks, hikes, swims, anything with you. Or anything he gets to ride in a car to get to. Cars = love. Frankly hes happy just to hang on the couch and watch the evening news too. The sweet sound of a human voice, paired with a belly scratch just puts him at ease. Buddy is smart, quick minded and full of zest. Some might even say hes too smart for your average Joe or Mary. He adores meeting everyone, and often gets so frustrated with not being able to get up close, he lets out an arf, a woof or a grumble. Don't mistake this for anything other than what it is - a dog that yearns to be up close and personal and doesnt get what these leash and gate things are doing in his way. What does this mean for you? Hopefully, that you're someone who really wants to be "into" your dog....go for walks that mean something, where the two of you connect, he hangs on your every word, and follows your every lead. Perhaps you yearn for a dog you can take some agility classes, some tricks classes, or some other type of you-him bonding time....This is the dog for the person that wants to be all up in their dog's life ...
